Events in Cape Town
Cape Town hosts events on a scale few South African cities match: weddings on wine farms in Constantia and Durbanville, beach and mountain venues along the Atlantic seaboard, conferences at the CTICC in the city bowl, and large festivals and concerts across the metro. The wind is the main planning issue. The summer south-easter can flatten loose decor and test every tent, while winter brings cold rain and the occasional cold front, so many venues want a roof or a wet-weather backup. Corporate year-end functions fill December. Planners and hire companies cluster in Montague Gardens, Epping, Paarden Eiland and Century City and deliver across the peninsula and to the winelands.
Typical party decor hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a bridal shower, engagement or kitchen tea styled with balloons and a dessert table
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a staff birthday, family day or casual team celebration with a simple backdrop
- Conferences, launches and expos: a welcome table with balloons or bunting for a small seminar or workshop
- Festivals, markets and sports days: a kids' corner or family area at a market with bunting and balloons
- Birthdays and private parties: a balloon arch, themed backdrop and cake table for a 21st or a milestone birthday
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: a baptism, christening tea or church celebration with a simple balloon and flower display
- School events and matric dances: a prize-giving or matric dance entrance arch and photo backdrop
- Kids' parties and baby showers: a character or colour theme, balloon garland, party table and picnic seating
