What to know locally in Johannesburg
Traditional weddings in Soweto, Eldorado Park and Lenasia often want a throne pair for the couple and wingback chairs for the elders, beside rows of covered plastic chairs. Conference seating goes to training rooms in Braamfontein, Parktown and Rosebank, usually in theatre or classroom layouts. Wheelchair hire is common for patients going home from the large hospitals in Parktown and Diepkloof. Lounge sets and cocktail tables suit gallery openings in Newtown and office year-end parties.
Chairs, tables and tents in Johannesburg
A single Saturday in Johannesburg can mean rows of plastic chairs under a funeral tent in one suburb and gold Tiffany chairs at a garden wedding a short drive away. The metro is big enough that hire firms tend to split along those lines: many keep warehouses in the industrial belt south of the CBD, while others run smaller yards from the townships and serve their own streets. Transport fees depend on distance and on traffic on the M1 and the highways round the city, so a firm close to your venue often quotes less. Book weekends from October to December early, and in summer plan for afternoon storms and hail with a tent that has sides.
The requests we see from Johannesburg usually come from:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: plain white or black covers on plastic chairs for the service in the tent
- Weddings and engagements: covered chairs with sashes in the wedding colours at every reception table
- Families and home celebrations: a 21st, a 50th or a lobola lunch where plastic chairs need dressing up
