Client: Mobile Phone Operator
Venue: The Table Bay Hotel, Cape Town
Criteria: The programme was called Legends and was an overseas event management programme. We wanted to give guests a ‘Legendary Experience’
Solution: We chose Cape Town for a number of reasons, the quality of accommodation, the range of different options available for guests to enjoy, all of which set beneath the iconic Table Mountain. Nearly 200 people, including the UK CEO and two UK Board members were wowed by layer after layer of different activities, things to do and see, which included the opportunity to stroke a cheetah at a dinner venue, helicopter trips over Table Mountain, full on parties on three nights as well as the opportunity for guests and their partners to enjoy a romantic evening together in a restaurant of their choice.
Challenges faced: Creating a balanced programme where guests had a wide range of options to chose from, which included shark cage diving, visits to townships, wine farms and Robben Island to name a few together with set piece events using the Spier Train, sundowners on Signal Hill and a huge party night at the Castle of Good Hope. The challenge was to make all these different elements work together seamless, we achieved this with a UK team of 5 people on the ground supported by a core team of 8 people from our local DMC partner.
Was it a success? An absolute and stunning success. Please click here to read some of the Legends testimonials.
