Events in East London
East London pairs beachfront and river venues with a strong corporate and manufacturing base. Weddings happen on the lawns of Beacon Bay, Gonubie and Nahoon, at guest houses near the Buffalo River mouth and in garden venues inland, while the Orient Beach area and the city centre host conferences, school events and public festivals. Mdantsane has one of the largest township communities in the Eastern Cape, with traditional weddings, umembeso, funerals and unveilings that call for large tents and hundreds of chairs. Summers are warm and humid with sea breezes and storms. Planners and hire companies work from Vincent, Cambridge and Beacon Bay and cover Bhisho, Qonce and Gonubie.
Typical DJ hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a DJ and MC for the entrance, speeches, first dance and a full dance floor until the last song
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: church functions, unveilings and cultural parties with the right music and no clashes with the programme
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: background music at a cocktail hour, then a dance floor for the year-end function
- Conferences, launches and expos: walk-in music, entrance sound and a DJ for the gala dinner afterwards
- School events and matric dances: a matric dance or fun day DJ who follows school rules on music, hours and content
- Birthdays and private parties: a 21st, 40th or home party playlist with a DJ who reads the crowd and takes requests
- Festivals, markets and sports days: sets between bands, afternoon music at markets or a DJ stage at a community event
