Our Wedding & Event venues

Warm Karoo comprises three unique spaces, The Great Hall, The Gallery & The Kitchen, all with unique characteristics that you can’t help but love. With an array of new and diverse wedding venues, we cater for both intimate ceremonies and large celebrations.

the
Grand Hall

Setting the scene for unforgettable weddings, events & celebrations in Bloemfontein, the Grand Hall is the heart of Warm Karoo.​

The Grand Hall has been reimagined to become Warm Karoo’s central reception area, surrounded by lush green grass and leafy trees, setting the scene for a celebration of a lifetime. Inside, high ceilings and exposed timber beams frame the generous open space, creating a canvas that can lend itself to your styling aesthetic or wedding vision. 

Accommodating up to 250 guests, the Grand Hall feels warm and inviting, with large stable doors that open to reveal the endless natural beauty of Warm Karoo in every season. Outside, delight your guests in between formalities with thoughtful day-to-night spaces where you can relax and celebrate together.

the
Gallery

Light-filled and surrounded by nature, the Gallery invites intimate celebrations and bespoke events.

The Gallery is the heart of Warm Karoo, set amongst tall trees, perfectly suited for the couple seeking a traditional yet dreamy place to say, ‘I do.’ During the day, the Gallery fills with the glow of sunlight, and come evening, the Gallery transforms into an intimate ceremony location for a romantic vow exchange. Designed with acoustics in mind, the Gallery has high floating ceilings and ample space for all events.

Flanked by wide double wooden doors, the Gallery completely opens, inviting the tranquil sounds of the countryside. Following your ceremony or event, your guests can meander through the grounds to the Grand Hall or The Kitchen while soaking in the sweeping views of Warm Karoo before the festivities continue. The Gallery’s serene, light-filled space is ideal for all events, from a beautifully set lunch to baptisms, theatre, and corporate events.

the
Kitchen

A favourite venue among guests, The Kitchen blends local gourmet produce, world-class wine and exceptional service into a culinary experience for all events.

Dining at The Kitchen will transport guests to the heavenly Winelands of South Africa, right in the heart of Bloemfontein. Touches of the landscape adorn the contemporary design of The Kitchen, featuring raw timber beams, screeded concrete floors, and enormous bi-fold doors to create an enticing ambience for guests to gather, feast, and celebrate.

Overlooking a lush green arena, The Kitchen is an ideal space for guests to drift inside and out to enjoy canapés on the lawn, dance on the veranda under a clear night sky, or cosy up next to a fire.
