Lecture 2-5

Randburg's character shapes how events happen here. It's a commercial and residential blend where corporate team-building sits alongside family celebrations, where business parks host conference events and suburban gardens host intimate gatherings. The demand for event planning is tied to Randburg's economy—companies celebrating milestones, property developers hosting launches, schools and community organisations staging fundraisers. Lecture 2-5 works within this landscape, understanding that a Randburg event might need to accommodate business-casual corporate norms in the morning and then transition to a relaxed braai atmosphere by evening. The proximity to Johannesburg's CBD means some clients are juggling time constraints; the suburban spread means venues and suppliers are scattered across different areas. Event planning here is about reading the city's rhythm and tailoring coordination accordingly.
