Events in Free State
The Free State offers wide open country for events, from farm and guest-farm weddings and sandstone-hill venues around Clarens, Bethlehem and Harrismith to hotels and conference venues in Bloemfontein. The city also hosts graduations, school functions, matric dances and church gatherings, while Welkom, Kroonstad and Sasolburg book corporate functions, community days and birthdays. Summers are hot with sharp thunderstorms and winters bring frost and very cold nights, so tent heating and wind security are worth asking about. Many farm venues lie far from town. Planners and hire companies work mainly from Bloemfontein, Welkom and Sasolburg, and travel to farms and eastern towns.
Typical stretch tent hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a flowing white canopy over long tables and a ceremony lawn, open to the garden
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a branded lounge or hospitality tent at a launch, golf day or client function
- School events and matric dances: shade for a fun day, an outdoor prize-giving or a parent function
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: an open-sided tent for a church picnic, a heritage day or a cultural event
- Conferences, launches and expos: shaded networking and coffee areas beside an exhibition hall
- Birthdays and private parties: a relaxed garden party tent with lounge furniture, a bar and festoon lights
- Festivals, markets and sports days: market, bar and chill-zone canopies that go up fast on grass or sand
