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.
Typical marquee hire requests in the area come from:
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a branded launch or awards dinner in a framed marquee with lighting and power
- Conferences, launches and expos: an exhibition or breakaway space attached to a lodge or showground
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a clear or lined marquee with a raised floor for a wine farm or garden reception
- Birthdays and private parties: a 21st or 60th with a lined ceiling, a dance floor and a bar inside
- Festivals, markets and sports days: VIP lounges, hospitality areas and sponsor tents at sports days and events
- School events and matric dances: a matric dance or prize-giving venue on the school grounds, with a proper floor
- Kids' parties and baby showers: a weatherproof hall for a large party or a christening tea
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: a formal marquee for cultural ceremonies, Bedouin-style weddings and large family functions
