Open-air events · Granger Bay

Open air, with chandeliers.

An outdoor venue on the Atlantic, with a warehouse behind it for when the wind has opinions. Dinner under the sky on a private beach, sunset over the Atlantic and Table Mountain behind you. The Grand’s open-air venues sit on the sand at Granger Bay, with nine indoor and covered spaces a few steps back. Outdoor weddings, sundowner parties, launches and long lunches, without the risk of an outdoor venue.

Why go open-air at the Grand

The sunset we don’t charge for

Granger Bay faces west. Drinks on the sand as the sun drops into the Atlantic, then candles.

Cape Town weather, covered

Nine indoor and covered venues sit behind the beach. If the south-easter arrives, your event moves ten steps, not ten kilometres.

Furnished, lit and poured

Long tables, chandeliers and candelabras on the sand, red roses, five bars. Nothing to hire in.

Fire and seafood

A kitchen built for fire and the sea, served on the beach. Braai on the sand, long-table dinners and canapés at sunset.

Good Vibes

Music, energy and atmosphere built in.

Dedicated Team

One events team, from first enquiry to last dance.

Private Events

Made for celebrating.

Weddings

Ocean views, beautiful tables and a setting made for unforgettable moments.
