Events in Ladysmith

Battlefield tours and heritage weekends bring visitors, hotels and guest farms take small weddings and conferences, and the town hall and school grounds host matric dances, church fetes and community gatherings. Ezakheni and Steadville see traditional ceremonies, funerals and family celebrations in large tents.
