Two Oceans Aquarium
Overview & Capacity
The Two Oceans Aquarium runs corporate events the way attractions should: after the public leaves, dinner goes up beside the Predator Exhibit for 110, or cocktails flow through combined galleries for up to 500, with the kelp forest doing what no hired decor ever could. The in-house kitchen is halaal-certified, AV and coordinators are included, and daytime conferencing runs to about 120 with the adjacent Avenue venue absorbing bigger formats. Exhibit protection rules govern load-in and rigging, so production plans start conservative. Guests remember these dinners years later - that is the entire pitch.
B&W Production Notes
- Medium - purpose-run events operation; exhibit spaces constrain heavy rigging
The guaranteed-memory venue. Sharks over centrepieces every time - just respect the load-in rules.
