Saving Money on Your Outdoor Event in Sydney

Sydney is more expensive than Melbourne and Perth. There are many ways to save money when planning your event; Giggser can help you book an affordable outdoor space, and these other tips can help you keep more cash in the bank.

Consider off-peak months.

Sydney venues offer varied experiences in the great outdoors. Spring and summer are usually peak seasons because everything is so green. Autumn and winter get a little cold, with everything turning reddish brown. While each season has its own charm, outdoor venues are usually cheaper during the off-peak seasons of autumn and winter.

Can you book the venue early?

Booking early can help you secure better discounts and offers. Most event venues on the Giggster site are easily viewable for renters. You can visit these in advance and book your top choice for less with an early reservation. Last-minute bookings are usually more expensive.

Can you limit your time at the venue?

Some venues charge by the hour, while some charge by the day. If you happen to finalize a venue that requires you to book by the hour, you should try to limit the hours spent at the venue. One way to limit venue time is to communicate the itinerary to guests early. Doing this and having a preplanned schedule can sometimes help wind things up quickly.
