THE EXPERIENCE

Grand Africa Café & Beach
Entire Precint Takeover

Cape Town was recently voted the best city in the world to visit by a global poll of travel agents… and it’s easy to understand why. Astonishing natural beauty, endless fantastic restaurants, winelands, pristine beaches, lots and lots of December sunshine… and Alcazar’s New Year’s Eve Celebration.

We are taking over the entire precinct at the Grand Africa Café & Beach including transforming the parking lot into an incredible outdoor stage. 

This unique seaside location has never before been transformed like this and promises to offer a new and vibrant experience just metres from the ocean.

Alcazar attracts over 4,500 people annually to create a unique buzz of celebration and joie de vivre that will leave you and your friends with a very special memory of your New Year’s Eve in Cape Town.

VIP UPGRADES

At Alcazar everyone is a high roller, but there are multiple VIP areas if you would like to upgrade your experience!

Enjoy exclusive access to multiple VIP viewing decks, bars and toilets.

The Main VIP Area is a private bar on a decked area overlooking the main stage, with sofas and cocktail tables and access to posh trailer toilets.

Table packages include 2 bottles of Cap Classique sparkling wine and a sushi platter and then a minimum bar spend that makes taking care of all your other drinks easy.

The table packages are sold for 8 people – but if you require more, then please contact us at hello@alcazarnye.co.za and we will make a plan for you.

Ticket holders to this area have access to posh trailer toilets and also to the Main VIP Area.
