Chewing through Tshwane
Princes and Princesses, come hitherto in a land of fantasy. Walk through gardens of roses and sip on High Tea with a view of the Union Buildings beyond.

There’s just so many outdoor party venues to choose from in Tshwane: feast your eyes on this list. Let’s celebrate!
West Rand: The sun is setting in the sky
And over the horizon, where the sun is setting, painting hues of pinks and purples, oranges and blues, a land full of party squeals, of animal petting zoos and tea gardens, of gurgling water parks, and solemn vows goes to rest. Recharging for the day to follow. Recharging to bring happiness and joy to yet another kid, yet another parent, yet another bride or mum- to-be. Muldersdrift and Roodepoort, amongst other suburbs of the West Rand are outdoor party havens for any sort of function you can dream of. Enjoy the African skies as you explore the Wild, Wild West.
East Rand: Birth of a new day
A little bit of sunshine in the skies, a little bit of airplanes flying by, a little bit of coffee on the side, a little bit of adventure in my stride, a little bit of pottery to make a smile, a little bit of everything in the East Rand sun dial. When all else fails, when darkness prevails: head East! Awaken to great fully functional outdoor party venues in the East Rand.
Stretching to the borders of the Vaal
If you can see the flame of the Power Stations, if you can smell the fish in the dams and rivers, then you should explore outdoor kids party venues in the Vaal. Be Merry on a Ferry or hop on to the restaurant: the Vaal awaits.
Hearty Harties

Indoor Party Venues in Gauteng
Indoor venues are popping all over the region in Gauteng. They’re popular, easy and carry half the stress of travelling, setting up and watching the weather report.
City Slickers- party venues in the cities
Busy Mums and Dads often don’t have the time to plan a party, forget travelling out of the city to greener pastures. Most shopping malls and restaurants are home to some of the best indoor party venues for kids. These range from laser tag, gaming arcades, to ski decks and more. Ideally convenient for travel and catering purposes, as well as time constraints, and the risk of non-refundable activities should the weather behave badly, this can be the “all under one roof” solution for last minute parties. In fact, urban dwellers of Johannesburg and Pretoria may prefer the lights, technology, scientific discoveries, wifi connectivity and warmth these venues offer.
Don’t be fooled though- there’s just as much action indoors as there is outdoors- jumping, skiing, driving, virtual reality, shooting, golf, cooking, baking, arts and crafts – there’s room for itchy fingers, enquiring minds and even those couch potatoes.
On the Outskirts- party venues in surrounding suburbs
Spacious and calm, the outlying areas to the cities offer just as many indoor kids party venues as the City. Without driving into the fumes and traffic congestion, residents of the East Rand, West Rand and the Vaal will also find suitable venues that ward off the rain or intense heat a stone’s throw away. Of course these venues offer all the conveniences of those in the city: catering, entertainment, and fun, fun, fun! No need to keep a tab on weather predictions, no need to lug shade, gazebos, sunblock and jackets ” just in case”. It’s pretty much book, arrive, eat, socialise and literally have a blast!
Take a ride on the local fire truck, jump on a giant inflatable or tough trampoline, paint, draw, or throw a ball, you may find there’s more to do at home than the local park. City lights are but an illusion- look close, you have it all! Shrieks, shrills, smiles and smirks: put a roof on it! Remember, what happens at the party stays at the party “all undercover, Mum.”
