The Mandela Day Walk & Run will take place in Joburg this weekend.

With Mandela Day being commemorated across the country this weekend, there are plenty of events to take part in the City of Gold.

One of them is this event, which seeks to celebrate unity, purpose, wellness and the enduring legacy of Nelson Mandela.

The Mandela Day Walk and Run is inspired by Madiba's famous route through the streets of Houghton. It includes a 21km half-marathon, a 10km race or an easy 5km family walk, making the day accessible for everyone.

There will also be live entertainment and activities.
