If you have reason to celebrate, to meet, to display, to exhibit, to launch or simply to get together in stunning surroundings, the perfect venue is waiting to welcome you and your guests – at the University Museum.
Each of our five flexible spaces offers an affordable, high-character alternative to other commercial offerings in and around Stellenbosch.
1. The historic Front Foyer with its double-volume ceiling and dramatic woodwork accommodates 150 guests in comfort and style. It is the ideal function room for a book launch, new product release or important media briefing. Seating can be arranged to suit the function and number of guests.
2. The Lecture Theatre seats 40 attendees in classic lecture room style, with fixed desks and upright chairs, a podium, a lectern, a retractable projection screen and a data projector. The room is wired for stereo sound and cable microphone at the lectern. Internet is also available for clients from within the university.
3. For small gatherings of up to 100, consider the intimate Mike de Vries Hall. Light, bright and airy, this venue is exceptionally suited for seminars and discussions.
4. The Museum Courtyard is a novel venue idea. Perfect for al fresco functions such as a cocktail event, a traditional braai or a wine tasting. Can host up to 200 guests.
5. The Back Foyer is a functional, elongated space, highly recommended as a food preparation space or serving area for functions taking place in one of the other venues. It could also be put to great use as a mini-exhibition room.
