Durban’s long-running Connor’s Pub at the beachfront’s Elangeni Hotel has been given a facelift and the elegant makeover will be revealed when the venue is re-launched as La Mer.

The new venue will be aimed at the 25-plus age group and will feature a changing line-up of musical entertainment from 20h30 nightly except Sundays and Mondays.

Popular Durban performer Francois Hardy, on guitar, keyboards and percussion, will be teamed on different nights with vocalists Karen Wood, Marion Loudon and Yvette Barnard.
