Year end function braai venues Cape Town
If you are planning a braai as a year-end function for your team, start with the venue: before you commit to one in Cape Town, ask whether it allows an outside caterer and an open fire on the grounds, and what venue hire comes to.
Questions for function venues in Cape Town
Put these to each of the function venues on your shortlist, in writing.

Planning year-end functions for a team
For year-end functions, ask the venue early about your date. Agree the head count with your team before you ask for prices: our rates are per person, with a minimum of 25 guests.
If your year-end events run into the evening, ask about lights as well.
Corporate events at your own premises
- Is there open ground where the fire can stand?
