Hive-Mind House – Blairgowrie

An intimate urban escape in Johannesburg

Your team moves through the experience across the property, from the garden and courtyard to our indoor spaces, rather than sitting through a function in one room.

Every programme is tailored. The example alongside shows how an afternoon into evening might unfold.

Sample programme

  2. 14:30Choose-your-experience sessions
  3. 16:00Drinks and live acoustic music
  4. 17:00Staff recognition and awards
  5. 18:00Harvest table, braai or dinner
  6. 19:30Music, conversation and celebration

You choose the people. We take care of the experience.

Let's plan your year-end celebration. Choose a ready-made experience or let us design one around your team.
