5. Any amenities?
We wouldn’t be giving you the full picture of how to find the perfect event venue if we didn’t mention amenities. These are everything the venue can offer, ranging from facilities like a commercial kitchen to items like AV equipment. If you know that your event requires something in particular, plug it into the keywords bar to see spaces that have what you need. Each listing will also have a full list of anything included. Don’t see something? Click the “Message Host” button and ask!
6. Learn the layout
Looking through some of the high-quality photos on a Peerspace listing and wondering if the furniture could be rearranged? Most hosts will mention in their detailed description whether or not different layouts are available. If you don’t see it mentioned, message the host and ask before you decide on booking.
7. Parking and transportation
A crucial thing to consider when planning an event is how your guests will be getting there. If you know that many are traveling by car, what parking options are available? Is there a public transit stop nearby? Most listings will have this information available in the included features – plan ahead to ensure your guests don’t arrive stressed!
8. Accessibility requirements
If you’re planning an event with attendees who have accessibility requirements, it’s imperative that you ensure the space will be able to accommodate them. You’ll find whether or not a space is wheelchair accessible under the “Features” section of each Peerspace listing.
9. Event date and availability
Another way that Peerspace helps you find the perfect venue is by providing you with a clear view of a space’s availability. Every listing will include their operating hours, and you can filter your results by a specific date and time to only find options available at that time.
10. Take a virtual tour
When browsing through potential event venues, you’ll find that they all come with a plethora of high-quality photos that realistically depict the space. Be sure to look through all of them, as it’ll make it easier to envision what your event will look like as a finished product.
11. Don’t forget the reviews
Instead of asking us how to find the perfect event venue, see what Peerspace community members have to say! Many listings will have a wide array of reviews from other members who have booked it before you. Each review contains valuable information about the number of guests that attended, the type of event, and their experiences with the space and its host.
