Finding a serene, beautiful spot for business events a stone’s throw from the Harare CBD that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg is a struggle. The owner of Platinum Events Group and his team spotted a market gap and were quick to jump in with a solution. Stephanos, a place where you experience “good living,” was born on 10 November 2022 in the beautiful suburb of Newlands in Harare.
Stephanos is that place that is cosy, fine, peaceful, and inspiring. The location is just perfect—it’s in Newlands, close to the CBD but away from the CBD’s madness. When you arrive at Stephanos, you don’t get that “Wow” reaction, but you just smile and feel at home. It’s calming; it’s not shouting. It is meant for you, the guest, to relax and do the business that you are there for.
The gold and black theme of Stephanos is breathtaking. The lighting, the seats, the tables—everything is just marvellous. It’s a space that you would definitely want to be in. The chandeliers, well, they can distract you from focusing on business because of their beauty. The food, oh, the food! It melts in your mouth.
They have private meeting rooms, they have conference/workshop rooms to cater to your various needs. You get event or meeting space, you get good food, and you struggle less for a good living!
I forgot to mention that the parking spaces are plenty, and they have a power backup system in the case of load shedding.
During the launch, the Director, who is also the Chief Executive Officer and founder of a giant in the catering and events industry, Platinum Events Group, introduced his teenage son, as the CEO and brains behind the launch of such a spectacular space, Stephanos.
Tourism Business Council of Zimbabwe (TBCZ) chairperson, Wengayi Nhau officiated at the launch of the venue which was graced by stakeholders, employees, family, and friends.
When you are looking for an event space for your business, look for Stephanos and make your booking.
