Events in Centurion

Centurion is a popular base for corporate events, thanks to its hotels, conference venues and business parks close to the highway between Johannesburg and Pretoria. Teams hold strategy sessions, product launches and year-end functions here, and many companies prefer the central location. Estates, lodges and garden venues around Irene and Eldoraigne suit weddings and birthday parties, and school and church halls host matric dances, fundraisers and community days. Residents in security estates often hold parties on their own lawns, which means tents, chairs and sound need to fit estate rules. Planners and hire companies work from Lyttelton, Hennopspark and Sunderland Ridge, and summer storms can turn an outdoor plan wet quickly.
