The National Film & TV Awards South Africa is proud to announce that Cartel Events & Catering has been appointed as the Official Décor Sponsor for the forthcoming 3rd Annual ceremony. The march into another year of celebrating excellence in South Africa’s film and television industries will be brought to life in stunning form by Cartel’s diverse expertise in event décor and infrastructure.
Cartel Events & Catering offers a full spectrum of décor solutions — from rigging stretch tents and stage staging to immersive lighting and bespoke furniture. With a reputation for flexibility, value, and client-centred service, CEC was chosen for its proven ability to blend elegance with logistical precision.
The NFTA, which brings together talent from film, television, podcasting, and streaming across the country, requires a décor partner capable of delivering both aesthetic excellence and operational efficiency. Cartel’s capabilities align seamlessly with the Awards’ high-profile venue, media demands, and red-carpet presentation.
Key highlights of the partnership include:
-
Designing and installing the red-carpet ambience, lounge zones, nominee background draping, and foyer backdrop décor.
-
Providing equipment and infrastructure such as cocktail furniture, ambient lighting, and floral installations.
-
Emphasising sustainability and local talent: Cartel’s team includes young South African event technicians, and the décor plan will incorporate locally-crafted elements produced in-house.
From Cartel’s side, the company’s founder, Thabiso, remarked: “To be entrusted with the visual identity of the National Film & TV Awards is a proud moment for us. We believe décor is not just about adornment — it’s about atmosphere, emotion, and experience. We’ll bring every area of the venue alive with character befitting South Africa’s creative industry.”
The 3rd Annual NFTA will take place on 22 November 2025 at the Opera Theatre in Pretoria. With Cartel’s décor design shaping the evening’s ambience, the committee anticipates a memorable event that honours the winners and engages the audience with elegance and innovation.
