Cape Town's new Conference Centre to open in February 2016
The Century City Conference Centre & Hotel recently held a tour of their milestone development, where invited guests were given a personalised tour of the soon to be completed multi-million rand project.
Cape Town’s new conference venue was designed as the hub and pivotal point of the precinct, and is being built to complement the Cape Town International Conference Centre and to add to the allure of Cape Town as the top conference city in Africa.
This is part of a significant private equity investment by the Rabie Property Group to promote business travel to the Western Cape.
This development is pioneering a new mixed-use GBCSA rating to ensure implementation of sustainable green design principles. Just fewer than 2000 guests can be accommodated in up to 20 different venues.
Facilities include four large combinable halls, a Ballroom, large open-plan foyer for exhibitions and launches, 12 meeting rooms, and an 80 seated business lounge.
The Conference Centre and the 125 room hotel will front onto a large, 1200 sqm active square which is destined to become the new commercial and hospitality hub of Century City. The new conference centre and hotel are generating a huge amount of interest from the industry, with an avalanche of daily business enquiries.
The Century City Conference Centre and Hotel is on track to open in February 2016 and the first bookings have already been confirmed.

Cape Town exposed beyond the beaches (2019)
In the past calendar year, 308 murders were reported in the crime-infested Western Cape township of Nyanga, South Africa. This startling revelation is according to the 2017/18 national crime statistics.
For its latest short documentary film project, the media team at Jesuit Institute South Africa in collaboration with the Society of Jesus in South Africa (Jesuits), visited Nyanga for a week to shoot an 8-minute snapshot of daily life. This palisade-fenced area of the province encloses people as though they were caged zoo animals, a local Catholic priest said.
Cape Town exposed beyond the beaches (2019), reveals the despicable reality of the crime and desperation lived in Nyanga. In stark contrast to the Cape Town known to many — as a tourist’s paradise — we wanted to highlight the inequality and the multitude of problems faced by its people.
The fatalities in the township are numbing and, crudely understood, mean that a life is lost here almost every day of the year. This revelation alone should bring politicians and our national government to act definitely and with haste. Sadly, it appears little is being done. The latest statistics reveal an upward trend in criminal activity in the region of almost 10% — especially in sexually-related offences and murder.
In fact, Rampeoane Hlobo SJ, Jesuit parish priest at St Mary's, the local Catholic Church in Nyanga, confessed that if one tries to abide by the law, one may just end up being a victim and a crime statistic as well. The problem is not that people do not want to obey the law but that those who do not want to obey the law terrorise the rest of the community and there are no policing and law enforcement agencies to protect law-abiding community members who want the rule of law. Consequently, lawlessness flourishes and reigns.
Almost a quarter of those who live in Nyanga are between the ages of 15 and 24, making young people in the area perhaps the most susceptible to crime. In many cases, it is these very young people who are the perpetrators of such odious crimes, making it difficult to escape “the cycle of poverty, violence and death”, said Matsepane Morare SJ, the former Catholic priest at St Mary’s. But, Hlobo says, the Church becomes a necessary and indispensable haven, not least for its young community members. We find ourselves journeying in solidarity with the people of Nyanga, the murder capital of South Africa and giving hope to many, especially the young, he said.
But that’s not the whole story.
Beyond the blood-splatter and filth-lined streets, there is an incredible joy and a hope among those who live there. It was encouraging to see young children playing in the parks, albeit accompanied by their parents for fear that they may be kidnapped or enticed into a life of crime by local gang lords. Nyanga residents also braai openly on the streets, sharing their food generously with one another, amid township song and sips of the finest brew from the local shebeen.
The sense of community is undeniable. We met with a group of mothers at St Mary’s. They come together to support each other through the grief and pain of losing their children to gang violence. I beheld their sense of hope, even amid the turmoil and senseless violence. One student we interviewed at the Church said: “No one pays attention to us”, but her warm smile showed that she held no grudge or contempt.
