The 2024 South Africa Sevens or SVNS CPT was a rugby sevens tournament played at Cape Town Stadium. Twelve men's and women's teams participated.^[1]

The format of the tournament differs to the other tournaments on the series, with four groups of three teams and no quarter-finals matches. This is because the men's and women's tournaments are held over two days at a single venue.^[2]
