Sempre Secret Picnic

Step into an evening of mystery, music, and midsummer magic at the first-ever Sempre Secret Picnic, taking place on Saturday, 14 February 2026 at 5pm. This exclusive Valentine’s experience blends gourmet food, world-class live opera, and a breathtaking outdoor setting — all wrapped in a sense of playful secrecy.

Your destination remains a surprise until 48 hours before the event, when ticket holders will receive the exact location. What we can reveal is that the picnic will unfold in a stunning garden venue in the Johannesburg area, chosen for its beauty, atmosphere, and perfect acoustics for an unforgettable night under the open sky.

Guests will enjoy a beautifully curated picnic meal, with both standard and vegan/vegetarian options, plus a welcome drink on arrival. A selection of wines and beverages will be available for purchase throughout the evening. Various prize draws for fabulous prisez will also take place throughout the evening.

As the sun sets, a lineup of opera singers from Sempre Opera and across Gauteng will fill the garden with beloved opera classics and lighter musical favourites — creating a vibrant blend of elegance, romance, and “party in the park with great music” energy.

With only 150 tickets available across four tiered pricing options, this intimate event promises exclusivity, atmosphere, and a Valentine’s celebration unlike any other.

Join us for a night where mystery meets music, and every moment feels like a secret worth sharing.
