Rainbow Restaurant & Jazz Club

S 29 48.870 E 030 51.379

Rainbow Restaurant & Jazz Club is Durban's oldest jazz venue and started in the early '80s as the first place for black South Africans to eat and drink in a "white" zone. It became a hot spot for musicians and as a meeting place for anti-apartheid activists. The club is located about 20 km west of Durban's city center in the Pinetown suburb. To get there, take the N3 west of Durban for about 14 km to the M13 exit. Continue on the M13 for 5 km to the M1 exit. Take a right from the exit and continue 500 m, turn right onto Anderson Rd, take the first left on Stanfield Ln and the club is a half block down on your left.
