Mdantsane alone keeps many East London hire firms busy, with funerals, umgidi homecomings, weddings and church gatherings booked weekend after weekend. Bhisho and Qonce add provincial government events, launches and imbizos that need marquees, stages and rows of conference chairs. On the coast, Nahoon, Gonubie and Beacon Bay host garden and beach weddings, and schools across Vincent and Selborne run sports days and matric farewells.
