Events in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town surrounded by some of the best-known wine farms in the country, so weddings, launches and corporate functions here usually mean vineyard terraces, cellars and oak-lined lawns. Students at the university add graduations, society dinners and birthday parties, while Technopark and Die Boord host company events and conferences. Rain from May to August makes a roof or flooring important, and the summer south-easter calls for wind-rated tents. Venues often set strict rules on noise, caterers and access, and some limit guest numbers. Planners and hire companies are based in Stellenbosch, Techno Park and Somerset West and deliver to farms from Jonkershoek to Franschhoek.
Typical sound hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: speakers and wireless microphones for the ceremony, speeches and first dance, plus music in the tent
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a clean PA with lectern and headset microphones for awards, launches and year-end functions
- Conferences, launches and expos: lectern, panel and handheld microphones, a mixing desk and an operator to manage the room and recordings
- Festivals, markets and sports days: a full-range rig with monitors and a technician for bands, markets and outdoor concerts
- Birthdays and private parties: a small system for speeches and a playlist at a 21st, 40th or garden party
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: church, funeral and unveiling sound with microphones for the speakers and a hymn playlist
- School events and matric dances: a hall or field PA for prize-givings, matric dances, assemblies and sports days
