• Facilities: Ensure the town hall has the necessary amenities like audio-visual equipment, presentation screens, and proper lighting.

• Cost: Town halls vary significantly in price. Be transparent with your budget and compare venue hire fees alongside additional costs like catering and equipment rentals.
• Availability: Choose a date and time that aligns with your schedule and check the town hall's availability well in advance, especially for popular dates such as weekends.
