Events in Gauteng

Gauteng is the busiest events market in the country, from corporate functions and conferences at convention centres in Sandton, Midrand and Johannesburg to weddings at garden venues and lodges around the Cradle of Humankind, Magaliesburg and Pretoria East. Families hold birthdays, kids' parties and traditional ceremonies in home gardens, community halls and church grounds across Soweto, Tembisa and the East Rand, while schools book matric dances and fun days. Summer brings afternoon thunderstorms, so many hosts plan a marquee or stretch tent as cover. Winters are dry and cold at night. Most planners and hire companies work from Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand.

Local tips for Gauteng

Common here: year-end functions, garden and lodge weddings, conferences. Ask each supplier to allow for this: ask whether late-evening collection costs extra. Suppliers usually come from here: planners and hire companies across Johannesburg, Pretoria, Midrand and the East Rand.

Lighting and LED Screen Hire usually suits weddings, launches, conferences, festivals, at a scale of one room to a full stage production. A quote normally covers fixtures, cables, control desk, operator, and rigged the day before or 4 to 6 hours before. Locally: summer afternoon thunderstorms: ask for a waterproof marquee and a wet-weather plan.

What to include in your request

  • Event type, date, start and end times
  • Venue, indoors or outdoors, and the room size
  • What to light: room, stage, garden, or all three
  • Screen size and content: slides, video or live cameras

It depends on the date, guest numbers, the venue and what is included. As a rough guide: R3,000 to R40,000 per event, depending on lights and screen size. Send your brief and a lighting company serving Gauteng will quote you.
How far ahead should I book in Gauteng?
For lighting and LED screen hire: 3 to 8 weeks ahead, longer for December. Locally: book 3 to 6 months ahead for weddings and year-end functions. Saturdays in spring, the matric dance season and December book out first, so send your brief as soon as you have a date.
Do hire companies in Gauteng deliver and set up?

Do you run the event yourselves?
No. We don't plan, hire out or cater anything. We pass your brief to independent event companies, planners, hire companies and caterers, who quote you directly. Give the date, guest numbers and venue so the quotes are easy to compare.
