Notes specific to The Cabanas / The Cascades / The Palace
- If you are staying at The Cabanas, The Cascades, The Palace (or other Sun City hotels) you do not need a separate day-visitor ticket — resort entry and Valley of Waves access are included for registered guests. Always confirm with your booking (some package rules apply). (Hotels, Gaming and Entertainment Group)
Useful tips
- Weekends and public holidays are significantly more expensive and sell out faster — buy early. (Hotels, Gaming and Entertainment Group)
- Some promotions combine Valley of Waves access with a meal voucher or discounted bundle — check SunInternational specials and the Ticketpro event page before buying. (Hotels, Gaming and Entertainment Group)
- If you plan to visit Pilanesberg National Park (nearby), note Pilanesberg has its own entrance tariffs separate from Sun City. Confirm both sets of fees if you’re doing both on the same day. (Pilanesberg National Park)
