Functions and Conference Facilities


The Two Oceans Aquarium offers a spectacular setting for functions with a difference. Enchant your dinner guests in the company of ragged-tooth sharks, graceful rays and shoals of predatory fishes. Treat your clients to breakfast in the tranquil venue of our living kelp forest where dappled sunlight plays on silver fishes.

The Two Oceans Aquarium is ideally situated in the V & A Waterfront, 3km from Cape Town's CBD and within close proximity of 5 world-class hotels.

Set The Scene

Although the Aquarium provides a spectacular backdrop for functions and conferences, you might wish to enhance the already beautiful scenery by incorporating décor of your own. A list of service providers can be obtained from the Functions Co-ordinator on functions@aquarium.co.za, but feel free to consult with the décor company of your choice. For inspiration, have a peak at the photo gallery for ideas on how to make your function truly memorable.
