STANFORD HILLS LIVE MUSIC EVENTS
Welcome to Sunset Sessions
Stanford Hills Sunset Sessions is a curated open-air live music experience set in our vineyards, where world-class artists perform against a natural mountain backdrop at golden hour. It is a seasonal tradition designed to bring people together at the most beautiful time of day—to share joy, create summer memories, and allow music to become an effortless part of the landscape.
At its core, Sunset Sessions is more than a concert; it is a lifestyle experience rooted in nature and community. Whether you are a local resident or a visitor spending your festive season in Hermanus, we invite you to join us for a day of scenic environments, live music, and shared moments. Arrive early, settle onto the lawn, and experience a feeling you cannot quite describe, but will immediately recognize when you return.
THE EXPERIENCE
A Natural High-Quality Amphitheatre
JOIN THE TRADITION
Some moments must be lived.
Every December, visitors from across South Africa return to Stanford Hills to experience that feeling they cannot quite describe, but immediately recognize. Sunset Sessions is not just something you attend; it is something you experience. We invite you to become part of this seasonal rhythm and leave with a memory that stays with you long after the summer sun has set.
WORLD-CLASS TALENT
Music in its Most Natural State
Artists are central to the Sunset Sessions tradition, performing in a slot where the sunset becomes part of the stage design. Without the pressure of late-night sets, performers are invited into a calm, unforced environment that supports creative flow. This scenic integration results in high-energy, engaged performances where the artist and audience are perfectly in sync. It is more than just a gig; for both the performer and the guest, it is a moment of ease and beauty within the busy festive season.
EVENT HOSPITALITY
Curated Food & Vineyard Bars
The Sunset Sessions experience is designed for comfort, safety, and natural movement. Our two fully serviced bar areas and curated local food vendors provide the perfect accompaniment to the afternoon’s music. As a family-friendly environment, we ensure that every guest—from multi-generational groups to holiday visitors—is well-catered for with quality offerings. To maintain this unique atmosphere, please note that no outside food or beverages are permitted, and we encourage the use of our shuttle services for a safe and effortless journey home.
