Events in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg is the gateway to the Midlands Meander, so weddings here often mean country gardens, farm venues and lodges around Hilton, Howick and Karkloof. In town, Scottsville and Hayfields offer older halls, school grounds and church venues for matric dances, anniversaries and funerals, and the Royal Show grounds host large public events. Students from the university and colleges keep birthday and graduation parties busy through the year. Summers are warm with heavy afternoon storms, and winter nights turn cold, so heaters matter for evening events. Planners and hire companies are based in Willowton and Mkondeni and travel up the N3 into the Midlands.
Typical corporate events requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a company-sponsored celebration or a staff wedding function with a seated meal and speeches
- School events and matric dances: a sponsored prize-giving or a school partnership evening hosted by a company
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: a corporate social responsibility day, such as a handover or a feeding scheme event
- Birthdays and private parties: a company anniversary or long-service celebration with food, entertainment and awards
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: year-end functions, launches, client evenings and awards dinners with branding and a tight programme
- Festivals, markets and sports days: a sponsored sports day, fun run or brand activation with stands and crowd control
- Kids' parties and baby showers: a family day for staff with a jumping castle, face painting and lunch
