Every town has incredible events, passionate organisers, local businesses, and hidden gems waiting to be discovered.
AroundTown brings them together in one place, making it easier to connect with the people, places, and experiences that make communities across South Africa unique.
Why AroundTown Exists
Discovering local events shouldn’t feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Too often, great local events are scattered across social media, messaging groups, and multiple websites, making them difficult to find.
AroundTown was created to solve that problem by bringing events, organisers, and local communities together on one easy-to-use platform. It gives organisers a better way to promote their events while helping people across South Africa discover what’s happening nearby.
Connecting People Through Local Experiences
Our mission is simple: to help communities thrive by making local events easier to discover, easier to promote, and easier to enjoy.
Whether it’s a school fundraiser, charity walk, music festival, food market, or a local business opening its doors for the first time, we believe every event deserves the opportunity to connect with the people who matter most.
What We Believe
Community First
Strong communities are built through shared experiences, meaningful connections, and local events that bring people together across South Africa.
Local Matters
Supporting local event organisers helps communities grow, connect, and thrive.
Simplicity Wins
Finding and promoting local events should be simple, accessible, and rewarding for everyone.
