What to know locally in Cape Town
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.
Cape Town: the events, the weather and the hire firms
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: ceremony rows either side of the aisle and matching chairs at every reception table
- Families and home celebrations: a small garden wedding or vow renewal at the family home with rows on the lawn
- Churches and faith gatherings: church weddings where extra chairs fill the hall for the reception after the service
