As the provincial capital, Pietermaritzburg books a lot of formal seating: government functions, imbizos and launches want rows of chairs, a marquee and a stage for speakers. The city's many schools add prize-givings, sports days and matric farewells, and the university campus in Scottsville has graduations and residence events. Edendale, Imbali and Northdale keep a steady flow of funerals, unveilings and religious gatherings.
