Sip, Swirl, and Splash: Paint Nite at Del Forno Meyersdal Brings Art and Wine to the Suburbs

Thursday night plans? Sorted.

Del Forno Meyersdal may be best known for pizza, pasta and relaxed midweek dinners, but on Thursday, 24 July 2025, it will become something else entirely. Easels will be set up, palettes prepped, and wine glasses filled as locals gather not just for food, but for a moment of creative escape.

Paint Nite at Del Forno Meyersdal is hosted by the wonderfully warm and wildly talented Michelle, who will guide guests step-by-step in painting their own masterpiece. No experience needed, just bring a sense of adventure and a willingness to get a little messy.

What is Paint Nite, exactly?

If you’ve never tried a paint-and-sip event before, here’s how it works:
You show up. You get a blank canvas, a brush, some paints, and a drink. Under gentle, friendly instruction, you transform those basics into something colourful and personal, with plenty of laughs and some proud “I actually painted this!” moments along the way.

These events have become a feel-good favourite across Jozi, offering something fun and refreshing for groups of friends, couples, or even solo creatives who want to try something different.

The perfect setting in Meyersdal

Set in De Marrionette Shopping Centre, Del Forno Meyersdal offers a warm, familiar backdrop to an evening that is anything but routine. The vibe is casual and inviting, making it ideal for unwinding with a brush in one hand and a glass in the other.

Everything you need, from paint and canvas to the easel, is provided. All you need to do is show up. Better still, guests can enjoy 20% off tickets using the promo code Paint-Nite-OG-20, making it easier than ever to join in.
