The Backyard @ Threeways
Eastern Cape
At a glance
The Backyard @ Threeways is a relaxed outdoor entertainment venue behind the Threeways Centre on Kenton Road in Kenton-on-Sea, Eastern Cape. The venue occupies a large garden area, creating an informal setting for evenings centred on music, food and socialising. Old milkwood trees and garden lighting add to the atmosphere without taking away from the open-air character of the space.
Food is supplied by local vendors, giving the venue a local-fare focus rather than a single fixed restaurant menu. A fully licensed bar operates alongside the food offering, allowing the space to work as a casual evening meeting place for drinks, meals and live entertainment. The overall style is unpretentious and community-minded, with room for family gatherings, social occasions and relaxed nights out.
Live gigs form an important part of The Backyard’s identity. The venue hosts musicians and bands across a range of genres, while a seasonal music festival brings a changing programme of performances to the garden. The setting is suited to audiences who enjoy listening to live music in an informal outdoor environment, with the garden providing space to settle in, share food and spend time with friends.
The venue’s location behind Threeways Centre gives it a distinct garden feel while keeping it close to the centre of Kenton-on-Sea. Its combination of local food vendors, a licensed bar and live performances makes it suitable for both holidaymakers and local residents looking for an evening venue with a relaxed Kenton character.
The Backyard @ Threeways is located at 47 - 49 Kenton Road, behind Threeways Centre. Seasonal programming means the entertainment schedule changes over time, so concert details and operating arrangements are best checked before a visit. The venue is designed around evening entertainment and maintains a strictly timed operating format.
