The Tryst is a home for events, video production, content creation, knowledge and education, entertainment, and people. It’s a space but it’s also a movement. The Tryst is where sparks fly… Where companies, teams, fire-starters, rule-breakers and big thinkers host their live (and streamed) events…

It’s where magic happens in multiple creative spaces. Where ideas, messages, brands and – most importantly – relationships are activated and amplified… We give a shit. We have a go. And we never hesitate to try. People call it “the best event venue in Johannesburg” and “the coolest function space in Cape Town”. We call it home.

The Tryst is both a physical building and an intellectual and emotional HQ. It’s for bold brands, ground-breaking ideas and human connection. It’s where clever comes together: Like a Tourist, Suits & Sneakers, Small Business Showcase, Mark Sham, and more. You might say it’s like a villain’s secret lair, but without the villain. And not secret.
