Tables, tents & party hire in Newcastle: local notes
Funeral tents in the townships are usually peg and pole tents pegged into the yard or the gravel beside the house, so ask whether the firm brings flooring after rain. For a church conference on open ground, a large frame tent with sides helps against wind and cold. Trestle tables carry funeral catering, round tables with cloths suit weddings, and in winter ask about lighting and closing the sides early.
Newcastle: the events, the weather and the hire firms
In northern KwaZulu-Natal, funerals are the backbone of the hire trade. Madadeni, Osizweni and Blaauwbosch hold large family funerals and after-tears most weekends, and churches across the area run revivals and conferences that need hundreds of plastic chairs and a big tent. The steel and textile works add corporate functions, and schools book matric farewells and prize-givings. Weddings take place at farm venues towards Utrecht and Memel and in town gardens. Most hire firms are based in Newcastle itself and in the townships, and they also cover Dannhauser, Utrecht and the farms. The climate swings hard: summer thunderstorms with hail, and winter mornings with frost, so ask for tent sides from May to August.
Typical party hire requests in the area come from:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: a gazebo, chairs and an urn for a small after-tears or memorial tea
- Churches and faith gatherings: jumping castles and kiddies sets for a church fun day or holiday club
- Families and home celebrations: kiddies sets, a gazebo and a jumping castle in the garden for a birthday
