Highveld weather decides the tent
Johannesburg functions run outdoors year-round, but at 1,750m the Highveld sets its own rules. October to March delivers hot days broken by short, violent afternoon thunderstorms — and hail, which is why framed PVC roofs and proper anchoring are non-negotiable in a Joburg summer. May to August flips the risk: bone-dry sunny days made for outdoor functions, with night temperatures that drop toward frost — evening hires add sidewalls and patio gas heaters as standard. Wind squalls ahead of a storm front hit harder here than at the coast; every rig is weighted and storm-strapped accordingly.

Does tent hire include delivery and setup?
Yes. Delivery, professional rigging and take-down are included in every Tent Hire Wiz Johannesburg quote. The crew handles transport, setup on your site and collection after the function.
Can a hired tent handle Joburg hail and storms?
Framed PVC-roof tents rated for Highveld conditions shed hail and hard rain when rigged with storm strapping and weighting. Summer afternoon storms pass fast — sidewalls keep the function dry through them.
