The event, which is being staged in Paarl for the first time, will be hosted by Western Cape Cycling and Cape Winelands Cycling.
Elite and junior riders will have the opportunity to be crowned as national omnium champion.
Top SA riders such as Nolan Hoffman and current African omnium champ David Maree are expected to compete.
In the omnium, riders participate in four endurance events in each of which they collect points.
These events are the scratch, tempo, elimination and points races.
The riders with the most points at the end of the omnium take home the respective SA titles.
The omnium also forms part of the track programme at the Olympics.
