Events in Midrand

Midrand sits between Johannesburg and Pretoria, which makes it a convenient meeting point for conferences, exhibitions and company events. The Gallagher Convention Centre and several hotels and business parks host expos and corporate gatherings throughout the year, while Waterfall and Kyalami draw product launches and motoring events. Newer estates and complexes mean many birthday parties and kids' events take place on lawns and clubhouse gardens. Weddings often use venues in Kyalami and the nearby country areas. Planners and hire companies work from Midrand's industrial areas and nearby Kempton Park, and delivery is quick along the highway. Summer storms often arrive in the afternoon, so plan for cover.

Typical event planners requests in the area come from:

• Conferences, launches and expos: a planner who sets the programme, speakers' travel and room layouts for a one or two day meeting
• Corporate functions and year-end parties: a planner who handles a year-end function or client evening from venue to the final invoice
• Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a planner who builds the budget, books suppliers and keeps the timeline for the couple and both families
• Birthdays and private parties: a milestone party with a venue, theme, food, music and a cake moment planned to the minute
• Kids' parties and baby showers: a party plan with a venue, activities, food for children and adults, and a clear start and end time
• Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: an unveiling, church event or cultural celebration with seating, food, toilets and parking organised
• School events and matric dances: a committee's matric dance or fun day planned to a fixed budget with volunteers and suppliers
