Monsoon Lagoon: Stylish Night Out
  • Tip Rating:

    Once again the scenario is set like Monte Casino. Monsoon Lagoon is situated in Cesars Palace right next ot JNB International Airport.

    The days of DJ entertainment are long gone and Monsoon lives by the philosophy that audio and visual entertainment should be the norm.

    During the night you’ll experience falling snow, bubbles experience a hurricane and water mist all while partying away to your favorite tunes. Lights and sound are second to none, from powerful argon laser to the intelligent lighting; you’ll be dazzled by choreographed light and sound shows.

    Monsoon plays host not only to top National and International DJ’s but acts and bands as well.

    Dress fashionably smart. Guys - No vests, torn or faded jeans, no sports shoes.

    A new concept in designer entertainment, reflecting the current euro centric style and music.

    The ultimate venue that caters for discerning fashionistas.

    Style, opulence, elegance and quite simply decadence prevails at this sought after venue.

    You get alot of wanna be`s here. If you like this kinda atmosphere then this is Your place to be , most certainly not mine. I like down to earth people who just wanna party and who`s not worried who`s wearing what.

    Just like I said in the title dress to impress.

    Well what can I say about this club. Its quiet large with 3 dance floors with there own seperate Dj`s, not all dance floors are open "depends on which day you go there.
    The music varies , depending on which dance floor you choose. There is House , RnB , Hip Hop , Techno , Rave and Rock Music.

    They have various functions during the week like , Shower Hour , Stag Nite and so forth. There foam parties is quiet cool. Anyway for a list of functions check out the website provided.

    Well They not that strict with their dress code but once again no track pants and try to wear casual shoes to be on the safe side.

    Monte Casino Pieter Toerien Theatre
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Montecasino Theatre is an independent private theatre that is both a platform and a theatrical home. It aims to give both new and established artists opportunities for new directions and growth. It is a place of fun as well as shocks, with always a respect for the integrity of the script and a constant pursuit of excellence.

    Casual

    For those of you who loves to get down to House Music. Well this is your place to be. They have everything from Trance House , Funky House and House Africa.

    Cocktail Bar: Monte Casino Sasas
  • Tip Rating:
  • Well this is a small cocktail bar , whereby you can go and have a few drinks and hit the dancer floor. Its quiet nice for a cheap fun filled night.

    The dance floor is quiet small, so then what "Just dance on the Bar".

    They have no particular dress code. As far as I know , no track-suites are allowed.

    This is nice stylish Restaurant and later into the night it turns into a very stylish Night Club with great music.

    Vacca Matta is probably one of Johannesburg's hottest nightspots, featuring some of the country's top dancers, DJs and music. However, what makes Vacca Matta brilliant is its celebrity pull. Many a local star and high profile individual grace its dance floor, tables and bar and this is what gives Matta that edge over other joints in Gauteng. It has also won the Ladies Night venue by the Leisure Options awards.

    Dress Smart
