Events in Richards Bay
Richards Bay, Empangeni and the Zululand coast mix port-town corporate life with lagoon, bush and beach venues. Companies in the harbour and industrial areas book conferences, year-end functions and long-service awards, usually in hotels and lodges around Meerensee and Arboretum. Weddings, umembeso and traditional ceremonies lean towards community halls, church grounds and large tents in Esikhaleni, eNseleni and Empangeni, where guest lists can pass 300. Summers are hot, humid and wet, and salty sea air is hard on fabric and decor, so shade and ventilation are priorities. Planners and hire companies are based in Richards Bay and Empangeni and cover Mtunzini and Felixton on request.
Typical jumping castle hire requests in the area come from:
