When it comes to booking entertainment for your venue, there are a lot of factors to take into account before selecting the perfect act. The right choice of entertainment can provide a memorable experience for your guests, while the wrong one can be a waste of time and money. Here are some of the things you should consider when booking your Entertainment:
• Budget – Before you choose any kind of Entertainment, you’ll need to know how much you can reasonably afford to spend. Consider all of your expenses including venue costs, promoting the event, production if needed and whether you can recoupe some of your costs via ticketing your event.
• Audience Size – Consider the size of the audience you plan to have at your venue. This will dictate the scope of Entertainment you should compose. Small events don’t require larger scale acts and vice versa.
• Availability – After settling your budget and audience size, make sure the entertainment is available on the day you require them. Check the performer’s availability, as well as the availability of the venue.
• Location – Where is your venue located? Consider the practicalities of getting the performers and equipment to the venue, as well as the access they will have when they arrive.
• Theme – Will your event have a particular theme or style? If so, ensure the Entertainment you choose suits this and is appropriate.
• Expectations – During the selection process, consider the difference between what you want to offer, and what the act can provide. This should include the quality of the performance, length of set and number of breaks, if any. Additionally, you should make sure both parties are clear about the expectations for payment and timekeeping before booking.
By taking these elements into account, you’ll be able to enjoy a successful experience when booking Entertainment for your venue.
