What this estimate assumes

A useful starting point for shaping scope—not a final supplier quotation.

Scale

Each service combines a fixed setup allowance with a per-attendee cost. Large audiences receive modest scale efficiencies.

Complexity

The selected event type adjusts production intensity. A festival carries more complexity than a contained conference.

Location

Johannesburg is the logistics baseline. Transport uses estimated return road distance and inland diesel 50 ppm at R33.29/L, effective 7 October 2026.

Scope

Figures reflect the selected event duration, standard lead times and typical specifications. Venue hire, artist fees and unusual structures need a tailored brief.
