Frequently Asked Questions
Picnic Sites
These sites have become almost synonymous with
the July itself and the demand is huge!
How do I get one?
At the beginning of each year, we at Event
World contact each site holder to find out if
they would like to renew their site for the upcoming
Vodacom Durban July. Those sites that are released
are then passed onto the waiting list of people
eager for a site. The current site holders are
also given the opportunity to move to another
site is they wish but again would need to go onto
a waiting list for this.
How much do they cost? The costs vary
according to which site you have and in 2006 ranged
from R650 to R3500 - excluding entrance and parking
tickets.
Can I decorate my site?
Each year the picnic sites are getting better
and bolder. With people either bringing in specialist
décor companies or doing it them selves,
it is amazing to see how each person interprets
the theme for that year. The theme for each year
is decided in advance by Gold Circle and an award
is given to the best decorated picnic site. To
be sent the décor brief for the 2010 Vodacom
Durban July once it has been decided then please
contact our office via the picnic site enquiry
form.
Please also remember no company banners or
advertising is allowed on your site as Vodacom
have the full rights to the event.
As always security becomes an issue and each
site holder is responsible for any items left
on their site, and we not advise leaving items
over night, as you may not find them the next
day!
Where are they?
There are 5 different picnic site enclosures each
offering a different experience for the holder
and their guests. Each enclosure is differently
priced and comes with different amounts of furniture,
and some with TV sets.
For more info on each enclosure including layouts
and info on what each site comes with then please
click on picnic sites. To go onto our existing
waiting list for a 2010 picnic site please use
the picnic site enquiry form provided below.
Corporate Marquees
These operate in a similar way to the picnic
sites. Each marquee holder is offered their site
for the upcoming year before any sites are released.
There is also a waiting list for these sites,
but please contact our office on 031 309 5522
to discuss any options that may become available
and to go onto the existing waiting list. Please
note these rarely become available as corporates'
are reluctant to release their Marquee as the
demand is huge.
