Tin Roof Events “live in your world, party in ours”
After searching quite hard in Zambia for the ideal party venue to celebrate this coming New Year, we found that the most likely venue to put out the “PARTAAY” will be the Waterfront in Livingstone. There will no doubt be a great mix of travelers, locals, backpackers and white water rafters to meet.
Location: Zambezi Waterfront Livingstone
ZAMBEZI WATERFRONT – NEWS YEARS EVE:

Joe’s Beerhouse, Namibia, “The most famous Beerhouse on the African continent” is truly Namibian, an undeniably African Ledgend. Set in a tranquil Oasis with relics of old and collections of new, Windhoek’s most popular restaurant is a world of its own where the desert breeze captures the senses in a whirl wind of visual and culinary delights.
