Ushering in the season of festivities in style, the bubbliest event of the year offered revelers an array of prosecco, gourmet food and cheeses, while being serenaded by a live performance from Dato Seiko. In light of the global pandemic, event attendees were required to receive rapid Covid-19 tests upon entry to ensure the safety of all. “After what has been a challenging two years for the hospitality and tourism industry, we were more than thrilled to have had the privilege to do what we do best and that is to host unique experiences for our clientele.
The ethos of this event expand above and beyond bringing attention to the prosecco category,” Protea Hotel by Marriot Masa Square chief operations officer Andrew Kamanga revealed after the event. Kamanga added that they wanted to focus on the community, through providing a platform for sommeliers, travel journalists and influencers who lead the event.
He said the All White Prosecco Soirée also seeks to serve as a platform to give back some business to Botswana creatives who have been hit hard by the impact of COVID-19. The hotel once again partnered with several local companies and entertainers to ensure another one-of-a-kind lifestyle treat. These partners included Lactalis Botswana (Parmalat ), the makers of delectable cheese, local distributors Benju, Fine brands and Lengau who featured a great selection of Prosecco to taste and purchase.
Entertainers included DJ Boogie Sid, DJ Kellz and Brave Heart who managed the exquisite sound. “This event is the culmination of a tremendous amount of thought and dedication to making this idea a reality.
Thanks to the strong partnership of our distributors, we had immediate access to some of the finest Prosecco available in the country,” Kamanga further highlighted. He said at Protea Hotel they are passionate about bringing the best and continue to work tirelessly to bring new and exciting events to the Gaborone lifestyle arena. “Our events are nothing short of an experience for those who attend,” he concluded.
