Phakalane Golf Estate Hotel and Convention Centre, in collaboration with Wish You Were Here BW, has announced the immediate postponement of its popular Wish You Were Here RnB Night following an unfortunate incident during a recent event. Held every Thursday, the RnB Night has been a favorite for music lovers and socialites in Botswana. However, concerns over safety and security have prompted this temporary suspension.
Incident Overview
The incident occurred in the parking area adjacent to the 19th Hole Restaurant, one of the venues used for the event. While the restaurant and its associated events adhere strictly to an age policy prohibiting underage drinking, the open nature of the surrounding area allowed individuals outside the target audience to gather nearby. This external gathering ultimately led to an altercation outside the restaurant’s premises.

In response to the incident, Phakalane Golf Estate Hotel and Convention Centre has postponed the Wish You Were Here RnB Nightindefinitely. During this pause, the management will conduct a thorough review of the event’s framework and assess potential new measures to enhance security and ensure the safety of all attendees.
“We will thoroughly review the event’s continuation and evaluate certain measures for potential implementation should the event resume,” the statement confirmed.

Phakalane Golf Estate Hotel and Convention Centre emphasized its commitment to transparency, promising to share updates on the future of Wish You Were Here RnB Night through its official communication channels.
