For almost 130 years, the Tramways Building has stood in the Baakens Valley in Nelson Mandela Bay. It is proudly operated by the Mandela Bay Development Agency as a venue where creative, cultural and community events can come to life.

As the MBDA continues to manage The Tramways, we’re looking to you to find out what YOU think will keep the venue growing and working for the people of Nelson Mandela Bay.

To make sure that the MBDA's next steps reflect the priorities of the Bay, we invite you to participate in the 2026 Stakeholder Engagement Survey.
By sharing your honest views, you will:
>> Help us align our work more closely with community and stakeholder expectations.
>> Provide constructive feedback that strengthens accountability and responsiveness.
>> Contribute directly to delivery on our five year strategy.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey here: https://www.mbdaengage.co.za/ (ZERO RATED)
