From grand helicopter entrances to minor road closures, traffic is already following into the racecourse setting Durban's Central Business District alive.
Durban's weather did not disappoint, proving itself Africa's playground with winter practically forgotten.
Although it rained briefly on Friday, the sky is now clear and cloudless.
Fashionistas and punters still making their way can relax knowing that they can wear anything, from slippers to sneakers, the turf is moist and not muddy.
Though it's still early, the race course is filling up, and the race-watching stands are already packed for early morning race action.
Most marquees are already set up and slowly waiting for partygoers to fill them up.
If you've been here before, the set-up is different. There's a lifestyle village and the ground is set up with various food trucks, drink stands and public bars, creating an inviting atmosphere.
The stage is also set for the lifestyle festival side of the race with different performances scheduled throughout the day.
The hats are giving at Hollywoodbets Durban July Fashion on the main day.
