As the sun set on another year in Pretoria, one venue stood out as the place to be when the clock struck midnight, Goldrush Kolonnade. Just a short drive from Pretoria’s buzzing CBD, Goldrush offered more than just a celebration. It was a full-blown experience, the perfect fusion of entertainment, gaming, and glamour.
This New Year’s Eve, the venue came alive with a festive energy that had both regulars and first-time guests buzzing with excitement. The headlining act? None other than Bella Q, a rising star in South Africa’s live music scene, who took the stage at 20:30 and delivered a powerhouse performance that set the tone for the night. Known for her soulful voice and magnetic stage presence, Bella Q turned the bingo floor into a live concert arena — and the crowd responded in kind, dancing, singing, and celebrating the end of the year in true Goldrush fashion.
“It wasn’t just the music”
It was the vibe — the kind you can only get when good people, great games, and top-tier entertainment come together. Goldrush Kolonnade has earned its reputation as one of Pretoria’s premier gaming destinations for a reason. With a spacious, state-of-the-art bingo hall, exciting electronic games, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, it offers something for everyone — from seasoned players chasing that jackpot thrill to social butterflies looking for a lively night out.
Add to that the New Year’s celebratory spirit, and you had a night where everything clicked. Guests were greeted with sparkling drinks and festive décor, while the gaming floor buzzed with anticipation. Whether you were playing a round of bingo, testing your luck on the machines, or simply soaking in the live music with friends, there was no shortage of excitement.
A Local Favourite With a Premium Feel
