New Year's Eve at The Twelve Apostles' Azure
Launch into the new year with a luxurious dinner and bubbly extravaganza overlooking the Atlantic Ocean
Ring in the new year in style in Cape Town at the chic Twelve Apostles Hotel & Spa’s Azure Restaurant. This seaside eatery is pulling out all the stops and corks for what promises to be a dazzling five-star festive NYE affair!
The party kicks off at sunset with a glass of Méthode Cap Classique and canapés while a marimba band provides some toe-tapping tunes to get the good vibes flowing, and revellers can expect to encounter oodles more live entertainment, including a magician, and treats before the main act of the evening.
Speaking of which, the headline performance of the soiree is certainly the six-course dinner, which will be served at 8pm. This indulgent feast starts off with a glass of Groote Post Brut Rosé Méthode Cap Classique and a selection of fresh West Coast oysters and seared tuna loin served with lime aioli.
