Events in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and industrial town on the N4, and its events reflect both. Farm weddings under stretch tents among the maize fields around Hendrina and Belfast are popular, as are garden and guesthouse venues in Eastdene and Aerorand. Companies in the area hold year-end parties, training days and small conferences at local hotels and halls. In Mhluzi, families hold funerals, unveilings and traditional ceremonies in yards and community halls, and schools use their halls for matric dances and prize-givings. Winters are dry and bitterly cold at night, which makes heaters and covered tents worthwhile, while summer brings sudden storms. Planners and hire firms are based in town, with more choice in eMalahleni.

Typical tent hire requests in the area come from:
- Weddings and traditional ceremonies: a garden or farm tent over round tables, with sidewalls and lighting for an evening reception
- Funerals, church and cultural gatherings: funeral, unveiling and church tents seating hundreds on a yard or street
- Corporate functions and year-end parties: a team-building day or year-end braai under cover on a lawn or sports field
- School events and matric dances: a fun day, prize-giving or matric function tent on the school field
- Birthdays and private parties: a backyard tent for a 21st or 50th over tables, a bar and a dance floor
- Conferences, launches and expos: a temporary breakaway or catering tent beside the main venue
- Kids' parties and baby showers: shade for a party on the lawn, with tables for food and a corner for the cake
