Gauteng notes on tables, tents & party hire
Stretch tents go up on garden lawns in Fourways, Midstream and Waterkloof for 40th birthdays and engagements, while frame marquees stand on paving at corporate parks and school fields for open days and fun runs. Party hire sets with jumping castles book out over December. Township funerals usually need a peg and pole tent, trestle tables and cloths for the meal, so mention the yard size and any paving.
Hiring for events in Gauteng
One Saturday in Gauteng can need a funeral tent in a Soweto yard, three hundred Tiffany chairs at a Muldersdrift wedding venue and a hall full of conference seating in Midrand, all from firms working the same roads. That competition for stock is the thing to plan around. Hire companies are spread through the industrial areas of every metro and across the townships, where many run a few tents and stacks of plastic chairs from home. Trucks move between Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand daily, so transport fees usually follow distance or zones. Summer brings late afternoon thunderstorms and hail, so ask for tent sides and a plan for the walk from tent to house.
Typical marquee and frame tent hire requests in the area come from:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: a closed frame tent for a large funeral or memorial when rain is likely
- Churches and faith gatherings: a long frame tent for a church conference, a revival or an Easter gathering
- Weddings and engagements: a walled marquee for the reception with a dance floor and no centre poles
