Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi declared the province ready to host the G20 Leaders Summit in Johannesburg on November 22 and 23, 2025. Speaking on November 4, he confirmed permanent infrastructure upgrades, including road repairs, streetlight restoration, and public space improvements, would benefit residents beyond the event. The Nasrec Expo Centre will welcome approximately twenty heads of state under South Africa's inaugural African G20 presidency, focused on economic equity and climate action.

Lesufi emphasized enhanced security protocols with integrated law enforcement agencies and disaster management systems operating continuously. Power stability measures feature solar backups and emergency generators at critical sites, including OR Tambo International Airport. The province expects significant economic gains from the tourism and hospitality sectors during the summit. Lesufi stated weekly coordination meetings between provincial and municipal officials would continue post-event to maintain service delivery momentum. He assured President Ramaphosa that prior infrastructure concerns regarding water, electricity, and sanitation had been resolved ahead of the global gathering.
