Year End Functions are a way of “paying it forward” to employees. Not only are Year End Functions a way to “give back” to your team, but they can also be a great way to get the team fired up and excited about the upcoming season or year.
Year end functions don’t happen on their own though, they require planning and preparation – especially in Cape Town, where popular venues are booked out far in advance!

The Venue
Cape Town is privileged to have a choice of so many incredible venues, wine estates, restaurants and public spaces to use for Year End Functions. The venue, it’s ambience and service can make or break your event. Be sure to know your budget as well as your minimum and maximum numbers in order to refine your search based on area and capacity. Consider travel distance for your guests and if you have a transport plan (or venue parking for your guests). Cape Point Route encourages responsible drinking.
How to select your venue
When selecting your event you need to match the venue with your message. Certain types of events like awards events or other formal affairs will require a different type of space than more casual gatherings like theme parties and networking sessions.
Think about your ambience and whether you want your guests mingling at a cocktail style event, sitting down for a meal or dancing the night away. Does the venue cater for your food and beverage requirements with on-site catering services and enough tables, chairs, silverware and tablecloths. Will there be awards, speeches or presentations requiring audio -visual equipment, electrical supplies, lighting and power?
Remember match the decor to both with the venue and your Year End Function objectives. If you are planning a big bash do you have a good DJ, dance floor and do you know the venue cut-off time – nothing spoils a good year end function than being evicted from the venue.
Entertainment
Entertainment can make or break your event and is very much dependent on the type and theme of event. Entertainment could be a band, a singer, a comedian, a keynote speaker, a game or inter-active activity. Although the entertainment is always budget dependant, it does play an integral role in the success of the event, adding a wow factor.
A DJ is the most cost effective and can accommodate any style or theme. Allocate your entertainment budget when planning your Year End Function and we’ll match your budget to your event entertainment. We have literally hundreds of ideas and contacts in our ‘little black book’, ranging from Roaming Acts for a cocktail style function to Stage Performances at a Black-Tie Dinner.
