Frequently Asked Questions about Event spaces

Have a question about Event in Toronto, Canada?
  • What size event spaces are commonly available in Toronto?
    If you know exactly how much space you need for your event, it's easy to find the right venue in Toronto. You can choose from small 500-square-foot rooms or large spaces that can fit up to 5,000 people. Pick a size that fits the number of people you want to invite and the mood you want to create—unless you're having a dance party by yourself! Always check the venue's maximum seating and standing capacity to give you an estimate and ensure everyone is safe and comfortable. No one wants to feel squished at a party, after all.
  • What features and amenities should I look for in a Toronto event space?
    Look for amenities like quality audiovisual equipment, fast WiFi, and parking that won't make your guests feel like they're on a treasure hunt. A good natural light source is a plus, as well as event setup and teardown services, so you can spend your precious time on other aspects of the event instead of setting up and dismantling tables, decorations, and stages.

Pros and Cons of Event Venues in Toronto

Toronto guarantees fun event venues year-round, but before you secure the perfect location for your big day or corporate event, you should take into account all the benefits and drawbacks.

Advantages

  • Toronto's rich economic landscape is the perfect backdrop for a corporate event, a business meeting, or a team-building event.
  • Dining out is a ritual in Toronto, which means there are restaurants, clubs and pubs galore. From Michelin-starred restaurants to food trucks and cheap eateries, you'll find a suitable event space even for the most sophisticated palate.
  • Toronto and Canada in general, have a rich history long before the arrival of the Europeans in the 15th century. The city has many historic landmarks, including Casa Loma, a 98-room Gothic Revival castle-style mansion.

Disadvantages

  • Despite having some of the finest transportation systems in North America, traffic congestion in Toronto, especially during rush hours, is not something you want to experience every day.
  • Harsh winters are not uncommon in Canada. If your event falls in winter, the brutal weather limits your choice of an event space to an indoor one.
  • Though it's a highly walkable city, you may need to use a car or public transport to reach the event venue. Take into account rush hour when determining the start and end of the party.

How to Plan an Event in Toronto

A lot goes into planning an event in Toronto, even if you've found the ideal space or an experienced event planner. From event design and equipment to catering and music, there are many things to consider for your event to run smoothly.

Create the Perfect Ambiance Meeting rooms, conference event venues and empty spaces can be rather dull. Regardless of the event you are hosting, you can bring life to the room by adding personal touches or incorporating a few decorations.

Go With Experienced Caterers – Food is one of the most important aspects of any event; you should leave it to professional caterers to take care of it. Discuss dietary requirements with the chef and see if you can create a custom menu.

Hire a Popular Band or a DJ – Music can make or break a party, which is why you should invest in a renowned band or a DJ. Before renting the venue, find out what the sound output is like so you know what equipment you need to rent. There's nothing worse than bad acoustics and poor sound quality at an event or a birthday party.

Determine the Budget – Your event doesn’t have to deplete your savings. Make a budget and stick to it. Choose one of the 187 budget-friendly Giggster offers, and add personal touches with DIY decorations and photo backdrops to save even more money.

Saving Money on an Event in Toronto

Despite the high living costs, it's possible to save money when planning an event in Toronto. Consider these ideas for your next event.

Consider event venues further from downtown.

The more centrally located the event is, the more expensive it is. Toronto has loads of great event venues in the suburbs and other fun neighborhoods that will not be as harsh on your budget. Compare prices to find the one that suits your needs and budget the most.

Are your dates flexible?

Most parties happen on weekends and holidays, making it challenging to find the location you like. If possible, opt for weekdays, and you may even be lucky enough to get a discounted price on your favorite venue.

Think about the amenities you need.

Some venues come fully equipped, which may cut your costs tremendously. Instead of renting furnishings, decorations, and wedding arches, you can opt for venues that have the amenities you need.
