Minimum Spend venues are a secret weapon for anyone wanting to host a quality event on a budget.
Minimum Spend venues are a secret weapon for anyone wanting to host a quality event on a budget. So what is a Minimum Spend, I hear you ask? Booking a venue with a minimum spend means that you won’t have to pay a fee just for using the space. Most venues will charge a room hire of venue hire fee. But a minimum spend guarantees you private use of the space, as long as your guests spend a certain amount on food and beverage. So, if the minimum spend is £1500, for example, one hundred guests would only have to spend £15 each, meaning you won't have to foot the bill yourself.
If there was ever an excuse to get everyone’s round, this is it! But it’s not just your typical bar and restaurant that offer minimum spends, many hotel function rooms and event spaces can offer minimum spends or combined room hire and minimum spend in order to keep upfront costs down. All you have to do is pick a venue, gather a load of friends, and you can hire a venue completely for free!
