Events in Upington
Upington is the hub of the Green Kalahari, a desert town on the Orange River where vineyards, date palms and raisin farms line the banks. Weddings and parties happen at riverside lodges, guesthouses and wine and raisin farms around Keimoes, Kakamas and Kanoneiland, usually in the cooler months. Farming co-operatives and companies hold harvest-season and year-end functions, while hotels host small conferences and tourism events. Paballelo and Louisvale families hold funerals, church events and traditional ceremonies in yards and halls. Summer temperatures can climb past 40 degrees, and winter nights turn cold and dry. Planners and hire companies work from Upington, and distances to farms and towns along the river are long.

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
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: an open-sided tent for a church picnic, a heritage day or a cultural event
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a branded lounge or hospitality tent at a launch, golf day or client function
- Birthdays and private parties: a relaxed garden party tent with lounge furniture, a bar and festoon lights
