Etienne co-founded EVH Events alongside his brother Emil with a vision of building a premium event production company that prioritises quality, reliability, and customer service above all else.

“When we started EVH Events, our goal was simple: deliver the kind of service and production quality that we’d expect ourselves. We continue to invest in premium equipment and an incredible team because we know that every detail matters. Seeing our clients’ events come together successfully is what drives us, and we’re always looking for ways to raise the standard of event production in South Africa.”
