Combinable Indoor & Outdoor Venue Spaces
Surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty and spectacular scenery in the heart of the Cape Winelands, Olijvenkraal Estate is the ideal spot for an elegant wedding or intimate private event. We are all about creating exclusive and authentic experiences that you and your guests are sure to remember for years to come.
To ensure your privacy, we only rent out our facilities for one event at a time. Please contact us for reservations and availability, as our venue is frequently booked out months in advance. All of the estate's amenities and facilities are available to you and your guests, with the option of combining indoor and outdoor venues for elaborate and glamorous parties.
Olijvenkraal’s expert event team plans & coordinates tailored weddings, parties and private functions to accommodate your unique design preference and celebration style.
Indoor & Outdoor Event Facilities
THE VENUE
Our modern event hall is a transformative canvas for hosting a wide array of events. The Venue opens up to an expansive manicured lawn and a spacious outdoor deck. Guests are free to socialise and dance under the stars or enjoy an indoor feast whilst taking in the panoramic views of the Simonsberg Mountains and the Paarl-Franschhoek Valley.
CAPACITY
The Venue can host up to 200 guests seated with a dance floor.
THE ENCHANTING OLIVE GROVE
Tucked away in between lush green olive trees, lies the olive grove, an intimate, secret space. The secluded pathway leads you through a camouflage of green, before opening up into a marquee-style structure, a tranquil, idyllic setting for romantic receptions, ceremonies and private events.
CAPACITY
The Olive Grove can host up to 120 guests seated with a dance floor or alternatively 200 guests ceremony-style.
THE OUTDOOR BOMA
Cherish quality time with family and friends at the outdoor boma surrounding the fire pit. Fortified with a crisp Chenin Blanc, breathe in the fresh air and relish a spit-roasted lamb or an oxtail potjie. Bon appétit!
The Boma is perfect for small gatherings or team building activities, or can be used by guests in conjunction with The Venue and The Olive Grove for exclusive weddings, parties or events.
CAPACITY
The Outdoor Boma can host 40 - 50 guests at a time.
