Hello Lifestyle Magazine and Bolton House Barbershop & Wellness Lounge in Roseabank are closing out the year with a celebration that blends refined indulgence, soulful moments, and the unmistakable warmth of community. Set to unfold on the 15th of December 2025, the Boots & Bourbon year-end gathering invites readers, clients, partners, and friends to come together for an afternoon designed around one simple intention: to exhale, reconnect, and end 2025 on a beautifully high note.

Hosted in the gardens of Bolton House, Rosebank’s home of modern masculinity, grooming culture and gentlemanly rituals, this year’s celebration brings together complimentary food, artisan spirits, live entertainment, spa experiences, and an optional Poker Tournament for those feeling competitive.

Heart & Soul Brought to You By Nando's

Thanks to the iconic South African restaurant group, Nando’s guests can expect a generous feast of flame-grilled favourites served with signature flair. Add premium drinks flowing throughout the afternoon, a sun-soaked garden setting, and a community of like-minded individuals who have supported both Hello Lifestyle Magazine and Bolton House all year, and it becomes the perfect recipe for a festive finale.

Country-Style Vibes

This year’s entertainment brings a completely different energy to Bolton House, thanks to the authentic, country-style sounds of Brad Cunningham. His music — built on easy guitar rhythms, warm melodies and a looping style that creates a rich, layered atmosphere — is exactly the kind of soundtrack that turns an afternoon gathering into something memorable.

Brad’s performance isn’t about big stages or polished speeches. It’s about creating a mood. The kind that makes people slow down, settle in, and savour the moment. His blend of acoustic charm, heartfelt storytelling and soulful looping gives the event a relaxed, down-to-earth feeling perfectly suited to the Boots & Bourbon theme.

A Complete Lifestyle Experience

Complimentary Bolton House Spa Treatments

Signature mini-treatments will run throughout the afternoon. From beard shaping and facial waxes to hand, head and shoulder massages, offering the perfect reset before heading into the festive season. 

Plus, if you’d like to spoil yourself with a full treatment on the day, book in advance on Fresha and enjoy 20% off treatments when you book online using the discount code: BOOTS&BOURBON

Premium Spirits & Bourbon Bar

A curated selection of bourbons, whiskeys and premium spirits will be served from the bar, celebrating the craftsmanship behind the world’s finest pours.

Scoot and the City: Getting Around Jozi on Two Wheels

They say that necessity is the mother of all invention, and when it dawned on the author that his daily commute involved no highway or byway driving, the thought of the humble scooter crossed his mind.
“It’s red, like a Ferrari,” was the reaction from the publisher of Hello Lifestyle Magazine when I scooted down the driveway, arriving at the office on my latest mode of transport, the 150cc Big Boy Scooter on loan to us for a long-term test.

Is Timeshare Dead? 10 Million South African Travellers Say No

Every generation inherits a few travel ideas from the one before it. Some we hold onto lovingly – the family road trip, the coastal December holiday, the ritual of returning to a place that knows our names. Others arrive heavy with baggage, but with a longing to carry that baggage too. For many South Africans, “timeshare” sits firmly in that latter category.
