While the show is in progress various fashion stores in the mall boasting top-end fashion straight off the runway, will remain open to customers.

| Metro’s sexy make-over | Benmore’s favourite night spot Metro Café & Bar underwent a make-over and emerged sexier than ever.

| For music | This heritage-themed bar lounge in the heart of Joburg’s cultural precinct Newtown is reminiscent of the old Sophiatown and classical jazz era and African chic in style. In the 1940s and 1950s, Sophiatown was a township and the hub of black culture in Johannesburg where art, politics, religion and entertainment came alive. Sophiatown Bar Lounge strives to bring this spirit back again. It has a great menu, anything from seafood platters to traditional South African dishes served on enamel plates. The atmosphere is relaxed and appeals to locals and tourists alike looking to experience something uniquely South African. Also very popular is its Wednesday live jazz sessions with South African bands to be enjoyed with a meal and drinks and soaking the heritage of Sophiatown. It is a great place to unwind and relax after a long day.
