If you’ve decided on Burbank as your party destination, here are some things to consider before choosing a venue.
Advantages
Burbank is just close enough to LA to enjoy benefits like being close to the LA International Airport and far enough away to avoid the worst of the LA traffic and the exorbitant rates of venues.
Surrounded on one side by the Verdugo Mountains, Burbank offers a lot when it comes to green spaces and outdoor activities. Visit the local parks for inspiration, and take your friends to some of the most iconic landmarks!
In Burbank, you won’t have trouble finding specialized equipment or professional technicians for your party. Being so close to LA has its benefits!
Disadvantages
While not the most expensive city in southern California, Burbank’s cost of living is still well above the national average. If you’re planning a private party on a budget, you’ll have to use an app like Giggster to find the best deals.
There’s a reason California is the worst state when it comes to traffic, and Burbank is no outlier. On the plus side, traffic in Burbank is miles better than in LA, and you’re just a 30-minute drive away.
Due to its distinct drought periods and location in the San Fernando Valley, Burbank is especially susceptible to wildfires and flash floods. Still, there’s no need to panic—just keep an eye on the forecasts!

If it’s your first time planning a party and you don’t know where to begin, here’s how to make it an amazing experience.
Determine the Budget – You’ve decided on Burbank as your party destination and are ready to move on to the planning process. Similar to any corporate event planning process, the first step is to determine your party's budget. How much can you spend, and what are the constraints? Make a list of all the expenses, starting with the unavoidable ones like securing the venue, the refreshments, and the entertainment.
Choose a Theme – While it’s true the theme should work in tandem with the venue, it’s usually easier to pick the theme first so you can find a space that matches your vision. Know your audience and take your time choosing the perfect theme!
Pick the Venue – After you’ve chosen a theme, it’s time to start looking at venues. From the Giggster app, you can browse all the options and access detailed information on all the venues.
Set Up Your Party Space – Does the venue offer in-house catering? What about sound systems and lighting? Check what the venue offers and what additional things you may need to host the perfect party. Check everything well in advance!
Balancing expenses on a party can be one of the hardest things to do. If it’s your first time, you probably don’t know the things you can cut off and how to allocate your budget better. Here’s how to get started.
Take care of the refreshments yourself.
If you’re hosting a private party for your closest friends, you probably don’t need to hire an expensive caterer to prepare everything. Look up some easy guides online for making canapes and other bite-sized options, or make it a potluck party so everyone can feel more involved.
Make your own decorations.
If the venue doesn’t offer enough in terms of decorations or you’re not satisfied with the atmosphere, you can always enhance the ambiance with some DIY decorations. Look up ideas online and visit some thrift stores to get the materials. In a city like Burbank, you can find amazing—and affordable!—options.
When should you book a venue?
The best time of the year to book an amazing, grand venue in Burbank is during the off-peak season between March and May and between October and late November. Keep in mind that in a city like Burbank, there will always be demand for spaces, so the sooner you book yours, the better.
On Giggster, you can find the most unique spaces for your party in minutes—from retro diners and vintage spaces to pool houses and industrial-style studios. Find the dream venue for your party and start planning unforgettable events close to the Walt Disney Company with Giggster!
