A good New Year’s Eve celebration needs three things: excellent food, a lively atmosphere and a reason to stay up until midnight.
Four Seasons Hotel The Westcliff Johannesburg is bringing all three together with a festive celebration in its Ballroom on Thursday, 31 December 2026, as guests gather to welcome 2027.
Running from 19h00 until midnight, the evening forms part of the hotel’s Gardens to Gatherings festive programme.
- The celebration takes inspiration from flavours and festivities around the world, with globally inspired cuisine, live entertainment, festive cocktails and selected wines from Babylonstoren. A dedicated children’s area also makes it a family-friendly way to see out the year.
The evening begins with a welcome drink, the Four Seasons Signature Negroni, while an arrival oyster station gives guests an early taste of the culinary celebrations to come. Food takes guests on a journey through a collection of Around the World stations, with a variety of international flavours and dishes to explore. The wider spread includes charcuterie, salads and a cold seafood buffet, offering plenty of choice before the main courses arrive. For the main event, dishes are served to the table, including Beef Fillet Wellington, Cioppino, Abstract and Duck. The menu brings together a selection of celebratory dishes, complemented by selected Babylonstoren wines and festive cocktails. There is no need to rush through the evening, particularly with a festive dessert buffet and live dessert station waiting later in the celebration. The sweet offering is followed by midnight friandises, giving guests one more little indulgence as the countdown approaches.
Live entertainment adds to the atmosphere throughout the evening, building towards the highlight of the night: a midnight toast as guests raise their glasses and welcome 2027 together.
Families are also part of the festivities, with a dedicated children’s area providing younger guests with their own space during the celebration. It means parents and children can enjoy the occasion together, while the evening offers something beyond the usual dinner-and-countdown routine.
At R3,800 per adult and R2,300 for children aged 3 to 12, the New Year’s Eve celebration at Four Seasons Hotel The Westcliff Johannesburg brings together an international menu, drinks, entertainment and a midnight celebration under one roof.
