Events in Sandton

Sandton is the corporate heart of Johannesburg, with the Sandton Convention Centre, large hotels and office towers hosting conferences, award evenings, product launches and year-end functions. Private homes and estates in Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside hold large garden weddings, milestone birthdays and charity dinners, often with stretch tents and lighting. Demand for sound, screens and staging is high, and planners usually book months ahead for November and December. Luxury hire items such as lounge furniture and decor are popular here. Many planners and hire companies are based close by in Wynberg and Rivonia. Highveld summer storms mean outdoor functions need a firm wet-weather plan.

Typical corporate events requests in the area come from:

• Conferences, launches and expos: an annual strategy session or sales conference with plenary, breakaways and a gala dinner
• Corporate functions and year-end parties: year-end functions, launches, client evenings and awards dinners with branding and a tight programme
• Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a company-sponsored celebration or a staff wedding function with a seated meal and speeches
• Birthdays and private parties: a company anniversary or long-service celebration with food, entertainment and awards
• Festivals, markets and sports days: a sponsored sports day, fun run or brand activation with stands and crowd control
• Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: a corporate social responsibility day, such as a handover or a feeding scheme event
• Kids' parties and baby showers: a family day for staff with a jumping castle, face painting and lunch
