2018 is winding down, which means it’s time to get on that end-of-year office function.
The sooner the better, because if you leave it too late, you end up as the office pariah responsible for the party equivalent of an awkward conversation at the water cooler.
Is that really the reputation you want as we head towards the close of the year?
On the flip side, planning something epic means that you’ll go down in workplace history as the legend responsible for the greatest year-end function of all time.
To help you on your path to greatness, here’s a list of some of the top function venues in and around Cape Town. You’re just one booking away from office heroism – pay attention.
CARTEL ROOFTOP – 71 WATERKANT STREET
Nothing says chic like a rooftop party in the city. One of the top year-end function venues in Cape Town, Cartel Rooftop, caters to 200 for a casual cocktail get-together, or 100 people for a sophisticated evening of dinner and dancing.
Enjoy a carefully crafted drink and some relaxed banter in style while taking in the city nightscape. As an added bonus, the central location means that your guests can grab an Uber at the end of the night, so everyone can get on with what the end-of-year function is really all about – relaxing with co-workers and destressing from a productive and busy year.
You can also improve the photos from last year’s last-minute office party because, with the superbly designed contemporary interiors and spectacular views, guests won’t be able to resist posting this jol on Instagram. How’s that for a way to boost morale ahead of 2019?
The rooftop venue isn’t the only space they have for hire, so bookmark this one for all of your future corporate gathering needs. Looking for a new, inspiring workspace in the new year? They have you covered for that, too.
