Showtech provides the technical production for corporate year end functions across Johannesburg, Pretoria and the wider Gauteng region — sound, lighting, screens and staging for the awards, the speeches and the celebration, managed end to end by our own crew.
A year end function is the event your company takes most seriously and enjoys the most. It’s where the year’s wins are celebrated, staff are recognised, and the team lets its hair down. But it still has to run properly — the CEO’s wrap-up needs to be heard, the awards presentation needs to land, and the celebration needs sound and lighting that carries the night. We handle all of it, so your function feels like an event, not a hall with a speaker in the corner.
We’re a corporate AV company, not a party-hire outfit. That means your year end function gets the same professional production and reliable crew as a conference — with the energy a celebration needs.
What we provide for Year End functions
Why a managed partner matters for year end functions
Your year end function happens once a year, and everyone remembers how it went. A failed awards reveal, a microphone that cuts out during the CEO’s toast, or sound that can’t fill the room takes the shine off an event your team looked forward to all year. We plan the production around your programme — the formal part and the celebration — bring backup for the critical elements, and keep a technician on-site all night. Where a venue’s power is a concern, we can arrange generator backup so loadshedding doesn’t end the party early.
With over 20 years producing corporate events across Gauteng, we know how to make a year end function run smoothly and feel special.
Book early — year end season fills fast
Year end functions cluster into October, November and December, and the best dates and suppliers go early. If you’re planning your company’s year end function, get in touch well ahead of the season so we can secure your date and plan the production properly.
Our year end production draws on our full range of corporate technical services — audio, video, lighting and staging.
Do you handle the awards ceremony part of a year-end function?
Yes — it’s one of the things we do best. We provide screens, projection, content and video playback for award reveals, showreels and staff recognition, plus the staging and lighting to make the presentation look professional.
Can you provide sound for both the speeches and the party?
Yes. We supply a system that handles clear speech amplification for the executive address and awards, then high-output sound for the celebration and entertainment afterwards, all managed by our engineer through the night.
Do you provide a DJ or entertainment?
We have in-house DJs available, and we can connect you with trusted affiliate suppliers for bands, MCs and other entertainment, so you can source it all through one point of contact.
