Events in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and industrial town on the N4, and its events reflect both. Farm weddings under stretch tents among the maize fields around Hendrina and Belfast are popular, as are garden and guesthouse venues in Eastdene and Aerorand. Companies in the area hold year-end parties, training days and small conferences at local hotels and halls. In Mhluzi, families hold funerals, unveilings and traditional ceremonies in yards and community halls, and schools use their halls for matric dances and prize-givings. Winters are dry and bitterly cold at night, which makes heaters and covered tents worthwhile, while summer brings sudden storms. Planners and hire firms are based in town, with more choice in eMalahleni.
