Yes. A 150 kVA generator switches on automatically during ZESA load-shedding, so lights, sound and kitchen keep running.

Absolutely. Decorators get access from 07:00 on the event day at no extra cost.

How many cars can park on site?

Secure parking for around 120 cars with guards on duty throughout your event.
