The Village
Spaces
Every event has its own character. Heritage Village offers a range of spaces designed to accommodate everything from intimate gatherings to major conferences, celebrations and cultural events in the warm heart of Harare, Zimbabwe.
Afrocentric architecture creates a distinctive setting, while modern facilities provide the functionality required for professional events and private occasions.
Conferencing & Corporate Events
Bring your meeting, workshop, seminar or corporate gathering into a setting that is different from the conventional conference venue. Heritage Village combines modern conferencing facilities with an authentic African atmosphere, making it suitable for corporate events of different sizes and formats.
Traditional Huts
Our traditional huts offer an intimate and distinctive setting for dining, meetings, cultural activities, traditional wedding marriage ceremonies, and many more. The huts provide more than a backdrop, they are part of the unique Heritage Village experience.
Outdoor Spaces
Take your event outdoors. Our outdoor environment is perfect for cultural activities, weddings, recreational experiences and gatherings that thrive in an open-air setting.
