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.

For stretch tent hire: 6 to 10 weeks ahead, longer for peak season. 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 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.
