Sandton notes on venues, equipment & supplies
Sandton has the largest choice of formal conference space in the province, from a convention centre and hotel ballrooms to small boardrooms in Morningside and Illovo. Day packages are higher here than in the outer suburbs, so ask for a full breakdown. Most large venues have in-house AV and generators. AV firms nearby hire flat panels, lapel microphones and confidence monitors, and printers in Rivonia and Sunninghill produce delegate packs.
Facilitators and providers in Sandton
Corporate head offices set the tone in Sandton. Banks, insurers, law and audit firms and listed companies around Rivonia Road, Katherine Street and Sunninghill book board strategy days, executive offsites, leadership programmes and sales kick-offs, and they expect polished facilitation and a clear write-up. The convention centre, hotels and serviced office venues in the CBD handle large conferences and investor events, while smaller boardrooms in Illovo, Rosebank and Bryanston suit closed sessions. NPOs in Alexandra, a short distance east, book community workshops and skills programmes. Many facilitators and speakers live in the northern suburbs, so travel costs are low. The busy months are October to early December and the weeks before a February year end.
Typical PA system hire requests in the area come from:
- Companies and head offices: sound for conferences, sales kick-offs and year-end functions
- Small and family businesses: a small speaker and one microphone for a launch or staff function
- NPOs, churches and community groups: a PA for an AGM, church event or community meeting
