Tables, tents & party hire in Richards Bay: local notes
Peg and pole tents fit most homestead yards around Empangeni and Esikhaleni, but say if the ground is rocky or very sandy so the firm brings the right pegs. Corporate marquees on paved industrial sites stand on weights. Summer storms come in fast, so ask for sides and gutters between tents. Trestle tables suit funeral catering, round tables and floor-length cloths suit receptions in Meerensee and Arboretum.
Richards Bay: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Port and smelter work gives Richards Bay a strong corporate calendar: safety days, contractor briefings, long service awards and year-end functions that need marquees, conference chairs and catering tables on site or at a hotel. Away from the industrial zone, the bookings are family ones. Esikhaleni, eNseleni and the rural areas around Empangeni hold funerals, umembeso and traditional weddings in the yard, and many homesteads are reached on gravel roads. Meerensee and Arboretum host garden parties and church events. Hire firms are based in Empangeni and the Richards Bay industrial areas, and many own tents as well as chairs. The coast is hot and humid with summer rain, and wind off the sea carries sand at the beach venues.
The requests we see from Richards Bay usually come from:
- Companies, conferences and functions: registration trestles and rounds for a training day, launch or year-end lunch
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: trestles for the meal after the service and for the after-tears at home
- Weddings and engagements: rounds for the reception plus a long top table and a cake table
