Special seating & dressing in Cape Town: local notes
Corporate events around Century City, the city centre and the Waterfront book conference chairs, cocktail tables and lounge sets, often for summer evenings on a terrace. Cape Malay weddings in Athlone and Mitchells Plain usually want chair covers, sashes and a decorated couple's seat. Kiddies sets go to Southern Suburbs birthday parties, and wheelchair hire is common for tourists and patients from the city's large hospitals.
Hiring for events in Cape Town
Two seasons rule Cape Town bookings. From November to March, the south-easter blows hard while wine farm weddings in Constantia, beach events on the Atlantic seaboard, product launches and festive parties fill the calendar, and tent firms check wind forecasts closely. From May to August, winter rain moves events under cover, so marquees with sides, flooring and heating take over. All year, funerals in Khayelitsha, Gugulethu, Nyanga and Langa need a tent and plastic chairs, and Cape Malay weddings and Eid gatherings in the Bo-Kaap, Athlone and Mitchells Plain book tables, chairs and linen. Most hire firms run from Montague Gardens, Epping, Paarden Eiland and Ottery, and charge more to reach the far southern suburbs or the West Coast.
The requests we see from Cape Town usually come from:
- Weddings and engagements: a cocktail-hour lounge near the bar where older guests can sit while photos are taken
- Companies, conferences and functions: a VIP lounge at a launch, an expo stand or a year-end function
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: a quiet seating corner for the elders of the family at the after-tears
Local tips for Cape Town
Hire firms serving Cape Town mostly work from here: montague Gardens, Epping, Paarden Eiland and Ottery. The bookings that come up most: wedding marquees and Tiffany chairs, funeral tents, corporate lounge sets. When you ask for quotes, ask how the tent handles the south-easter and whether winter sides are included.
Around Cape Town the largest group asking is weddings and engagements, which usually means a cocktail-hour lounge near the bar where older guests can sit while photos are taken. Before you agree to anything: keep upholstery off wet grass. Delivery here: trucks from industrial areas; far suburbs, Atlantic venues and farms cost more.
