The Deck

The deck of the BAT Centre stretches for most of the buildings length and offers panoramic views of Durban's working harbour. This venue is ideal for parties and functions. The bar is easily accessible and the atmosphere relaxed. During the weekly “Sundowner” live music performances the deck is transformed into a livid ocean of jazz lovers and traditional music enthusiasts that range from the local art community to the international tourists.
