Be honest – how many times have you been to a corporate event in a ballroom or conference hall? These are great event venues but are common settings for conferences and meetings. Sometimes you need to shake it up. Hosting your company’s next event in an interesting venue is a surefire way to make your meeting memorable. Here are some suggestions for fun locales that could work well for your next event.
This is a fantastic way to get your attendees out in the fresh air! These tents come in a wide variety of sizes and can accommodate all kinds of business meetings. Even better, their portable nature means you aren’t locked down to one venue. If you have a nice area on your company grounds, you can bring the tent to your own metaphorical backyard! Outdoor rental companies can provide you with a tent and all the seating you need to have your event out in the sunshine.
You can do wonderful things with a simple tent. Pictured above is a job Colortone worked for Automotive Events. Our event production experts transformed their tent into a state-of-the-art automobile showroom using clever AV, rigging, and staging.
If you’re sure the weather will be nice, then bring beautiful views and fresh air to your attendees. People often associate rooftop parties with fun cocktail hours or celebrating special occasions with close friends. You’d bring up those great memories by having your event in such a relaxed and refreshing environment.
You could use your office roof if it’s big enough. But if not, there are countless beautiful rooftop venues you can rent. You can bring in an outside audiovisual company like Colortone to make sure your AV works perfectly so your attendees don’t miss a word while they’re enjoying the view.
Wouldn’t you like to have a boardroom meeting under a Tyrannosaurus Rex, or a summit surrounded by art? Many museums offer unique spaces that companies can rent out. No matter which museum you pick, you’ll make an impact. You could choose a local favorite or find one that talks about a topic related to your company. (For example, a plane engineering company may enjoy meeting under historic planes in an aerospace museum.)
Pictured above is an event Colortone provided AV for in the lobby of The Cleveland Museum of Art. With a projected screen and colorful lights, the museum lobby turned into a work of art.
The thrill of the game, the roar of the crowd… a stadium is the perfect setting for an exciting event! With ample space and seating, stadiums of any size can serve as a great outdoor venue for everything from corporate fairs to unique product launches. They combine the best aspects of indoor and outdoor venues with their open-air appeal and infrastructure purpose-built for doing big events. Large stadiums often have multiple venues within them that you can rent out: everything from banquet halls to stadium landings overlooking the whole field!
Smaller stadiums too can make for memorable venues. Pictured above is University School’s football field. When they needed to hold Commencement in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, Colortone rose to the challenge- adapting to the outdoor setting so the ceremony was safe and memorable.
Virtual and hybrid events aren’t going away for a long time. Why not make yours feel as professional as a live one?
Having everyone get into separate rooms and use their own laptops is a cheap option, but it leads to issues. Poor audio quality, boring or messy backgrounds, and flat visuals can downgrade your event.
You shouldn’t have to worry about stream quality when you’re trying to make your virtual event run smoothly. Colortone has a professional studio space for rent with state-of-the-art equipment and a stunning LED wall. Whether you come into the studio or are full-remote, Colortone will take your virtual setup to the next level.
The sky is the limit here- anywhere can work well if you have a great production partner to make your chosen space work for your event.
