One of the most prestigious events to hit South Africa's social calendar will soon be underway when the Who’s-Who of SA’s elite come together to party.

The build-up has already begun as G&G Productions once again pulls out all the stops to prepare for this year’s Official Vodacom Durban July After-party, to be held at the DLI Hall on the evening of the 7 July 2012. Powered by Vodacom 4U and Samsung, this event forms the climax of a weekend filled with pure entertainment for Durban and its visitors.

The event is endorsed by Gold Circle and is the official after party. Samsung has a strong brand presence, and many of the creative and innovative aspects that the company provides in its technologies will be mirrored in this after party.

The DLI main hall will be labelled the Supercharged Dance Floor - this floor will have a more commercial feel, with an electronic edge.  Another highlight this year is the Enchanted Galaxy Dance Floor, which will feature some of the country's most talented trance DJs.

VIP Deluxe is a twofold offering: a cosy dance floor with top local artists and a relaxed indoor/outdoor chill environment. Patrons can lounge around low top tables, enjoying hubblies whilst watching the mystical enchanted floor in the background. All beers and ciders are free to VIP Deluxe ticket holders in this area.

On the Supercharged floor: DJ Fresh, Euphonik, Roger Goode, Martin McHale, the Sp!ndoctor and Gareth Devore.

DJs in the Enchanted Garden: Dean Fuel, Protoculture, The Commercial Hippies, Niskerone and Tomorrow’s Will.

For VIP Deluxe: Kyle Worde, Veranda Panda, DJ Kent, Royal K and Justin Miller.

Regular tickets will cost R250 and VIP Deluxe tickets will cost R550. Regular tickets include access to all areas excluding VIP areas. VIP Deluxe tickets include free beers and ciders at the VIP Deluxe bar.

Tickets will be on sale through selected Vodacom 4U outlets as well as Computicket nationwide. Tickets bought through a Vodacom 4U store will offer a 15 percent discount off the ticket price (while stocks last).  A limited number of tickets will be reserved for sale at the door on the night at R300 for Regular and R700 for Deluxe VIP.

The event also offers safe and secure parking at the DLI Hall, which is in walking distance from the races, within the Greyville racecourse.

Parking tickets can be purchased for R40. Guests will be able to park in this area from 8am on Saturday with security provided until 4am on Sunday after the close of the after-party.

Parking tickets can also be purchased from selected Vodacom 4U stores and Computicket outlets nationwide.
