The PCO Alliance You Rock Awards After Party has taken the events industry by storm, rapidly becoming the “talk of the town.” This great event took place at the Hard Rock Café in Sandton on 26 February 2025, and was an unforgettable evening, attended by nearly 300 MICE industry guests.
The Awards, a first for the PCO Alliance Network and the brain child of our chairperson Melody Barber, have generated significant excitement and curiosity throughout the industry.
Kicking off the evening in style was the talented Andy Klee, renowned for her unique blend of glamour and contemporary music, ensuring that the evening opened with an energetic flair. Guests were treated to a renowned Hard Rock finger supper and drinks and the atmosphere was abuzz with the aftermath of Meetings Africa.
Guiding the evening’s festivities was the charismatic MC Lerato Ditshego who captured the essence of the awards and the after-party with flair and charm. We were also entertained by BiloLive – a band who was energetic, fun and very versatile and got the crowd dancing.
The awards were well deserved to industry organizations, companies and individuals who provide excellent service, facilities and experiential offerings. Well done to all the winners.
