Tips for Choosing the Best Summer Venue for your Corporate Event
May 15, 2019

Summer is almost here. If you’re tasked with choosing the best summer venue for a corporate event, the pressure is on.

With so many options to choose from and so many companies competing for the same venues, it can be difficult to determine what factors are make or break and what amenities are optional versus required.

This blog will give you a few tips that will help you choose (and book) the best summer venue for your corporate event.

  • Indoor & outdoor

Though most of your peers will be looking for venues with outdoor space exclusively, you can narrow your list of options to those that have both indoor and outdoor spaces. Weather is unpredictable, and when it decides to rain on your big day you’ll be glad you have a contingency plan and a place to move your guests!

  • Throw an after-party

Everyone loves an after-party. Choose a venue that can open up to the public after the event is over so guests can keep the party going.

  • If you plan it, they will come

In the winter, people are naturally less willing to travel due to poor weather. The risk of flight cancellations and getting stranded are just too great. Once summer comes around, people will travel almost anywhere for a good city view. Keep that in mind!

  • Location, Location, Location

The city you choose to have your corporate event in matters less than how accessible your venue is in that city. In other words, once people land, you want to ensure your venue is easy to get to.

Though Lyft and Uber will take your guests anywhere they want to go, consider the ease of using public transportation when you’re searching for a venue.

  • Private isn’t always preferred

Don’t be afraid to book a semi-private space and share a venue. The pricing will be more appealing and the difference in experience is often negligible — any party with drinks and food is a good time!
