Events in Pretoria
Pretoria hosts government functions, university graduations, embassy events and plenty of family weddings. Garden venues in Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Faerie Glen suit smaller ceremonies, while wine and country estates to the east and north draw larger bookings. October is jacaranda season, when outdoor photographs and spring weddings are in high demand. Many companies hold conferences and workshops at hotels and lodges around Hatfield and Centurion, and churches and halls in Mamelodi and Soshanguve host big community celebrations. Summer afternoons bring thunderstorms, so tents and covered stages are popular. Planners and hire companies work from Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West and cover the whole of Tshwane.
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
- 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
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: church functions, unveilings and cultural parties with the right music and no clashes with the programme
- 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
- Kids' parties and baby showers: a kids' party DJ with games, a dance competition and age-appropriate music
