Events in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and school town, so graduations, matric dances, residence functions and sports events fill much of the calendar.

Garden venues, guesthouses and farm venues along the Mooi River and outside town host weddings, with plenty of tree-lined settings. Companies hold year-end functions at hotels and clubs, and Ikageng families hold funerals, unveilings and traditional ceremonies in yards and halls.
