Fortunately, we’re here to help. Here are our top tips for making your summer party shine. Whether you're planning a summer BBQ or an alfresco birthday bash, hiring an outdoor party venue in London can be the perfect way to celebrate. But with so many options available, it can be tricky to know where to start. Here are our top tips for finding the perfect outdoor party venue in London. ### Decide what type of event you're hosting Are you looking for a relaxed garden party vibe with fairy lights, or something more formal? Is this for your team or friends and family? Or key clients and stakeholders? This will help you narrow down your [search](https://hirespace.com/Search) and find the perfect venue that's just right for your event. ### Consider your budget Outdoor venues can vary widely in price, so it's important to have a clear idea of how much you're willing to spend before you start your search. Also think about everything else you’ll need to account for, such as catering, drinks, decor and theming, AV, furniture, branding etc. ### Think about location Do you want to be in the heart of the city, or would you prefer a more rural setting? How will guests get to you? Is the venue close to public transport, and if your event starts after work, is it going to take them an hour to get to you in rush hour? ### Make sure the venue has everything you need When you're planning an outdoor event, there are a few key things to consider: is there enough space for your guests? Is there power for any audio-visual equipment you might need? Is there adequate lighting? Are there restrooms on-site? What about catering? What happens if it rains? (Make sure you check the weather forecast!) ### Ask about events insurance This is particularly important if you're planning an outdoor event, as there's always a risk of bad weather or other unforeseen problems. Make sure you're familiar with the venue's events insurance policy before you book. This is by no means an exhaustive list, but by following these few tips, you're sure to get your outdoor party off to a flying start.
