Welcome to Summer 2025/2026
Your Grand Season Starts Now
From our signature collaborations with global party brands like Paradisco, Made in Mykonos, and other sun-soaked soirées, to high-style local takeovers and immersive artist-led nights, Grand Africa becomes the place where unforgettable memories and cultural moments are made.
As the sun slips behind Granger Bay, DJ-led beach parties electrify the shoreline with world-class sound, barefoot dancing, and the spirit of summer in full swing. Later, smooth Jazz Evenings cast their spell — with sultry melodies, soulful sunsets, and an air of timeless indulgence.
Whether you’re sipping champagne under the stars or chasing the beat on the sand, every Grand Africa event is a curated escape — for the tastemaker, the world traveller, the dreamer, and the bold. At Grand Africa, no two nights are ever the same — but every one becomes your personal summer story, drenched in style and told in technicolour.
Alcazar
Cape Town’s ultimate New Year’s Eve party returns – bigger, bolder, and taking over the entire Grand Africa Café & Beach precinct for the first time ever. Jungle Fever meets disco decadence in a glittering, untamed playground under the stars.
Expect wild performances, massive stages, and that legendary Alcazar energy that turns the night into a fantasy.
