Events in Midrand

Midrand sits between Johannesburg and Pretoria, which makes it a convenient meeting point for conferences, exhibitions and company events. The Gallagher Convention Centre and several hotels and business parks host expos and corporate gatherings throughout the year, while Waterfall and Kyalami draw product launches and motoring events. Newer estates and complexes mean many birthday parties and kids' events take place on lawns and clubhouse gardens. Weddings often use venues in Kyalami and the nearby country areas. Planners and hire companies work from Midrand's industrial areas and nearby Kempton Park, and delivery is quick along the highway. Summer storms often arrive in the afternoon, so plan for cover.
