The price of a conference venue hire includes the tables and chairs needed for conferences. However, if you need extra chairs, you might hire them separately or bring your own. Basic facilities such as toilets are also included in the price. If you need additional services such as catering, you need to pay extra. However, some venues have kitchen facilities with coffee machines or space for outside catering vendors, if the policy allows. You should also consider what equipment is available, such as projectors, whiteboards, screens, sound systems, and microphones. Most venues have basic equipment such as projectors and screens, but you may need to bring your own microphones if required. If you plan to use laptops or smart boards during your conference, make sure that they are compatible with the venue’s equipment.
