Crowds gathered to watch as the Moët &Chandon Golden Tree lit up against Table Mountain’s iconic silhouette at the annual Tree Lighting Ceremony last week.
‘Nessun Dorma’ sung by internationally revered opera singers Given Nkosi and Magdalene Minnaar opened the ceremony creating an unparalleled atmosphere of festivity and celebration. The spectacular event was attended by the likes of newly crowned Rugby World Cup-winning Captain Springbok Siya Kolisi and South African star Boity Thulo who also had the honour of turning on the lights at this year’s 3rd annual Moët &Chandon Golden Tree Lighting Ceremony.
“The Moët & Chandon Golden Tree is a true symbol of celebration. Every single bottle of Moët & Chandon used to build this magnificent Tree represents a #MOETMOMENT that was shared and celebrated in South Africa. So tonight, we celebrate 2000 memorable moments between friends and families; the opening of the festive season and the start of what we hope will be an incredible new decade,” said Pascal Asin, Moët Hennessy Managing Director Africa & Middle East.
The Moët Golden Tree, located in front of Zeitz MOCAA at the V&A Waterfront Silo District, will be on display until the 6th of January 2020. Take a look at a few of the images of the evening below.
