Party halls in Vancouver are a classic favorite for any special event, from private parties that bring family and friends together to company gatherings and milestone celebrations. No matter your occasion, you can’t go wrong with a party hall venue in the “Hollywood of the North.”
Graduations – A Toast to New Adventures. Why have separate parties when you and your school friends can have one big graduation party in a massive event hall? You can even invite your teachers and other family members and friends, and there’s still plenty of room to dance, sing, and mingle.
Weddings – Love, Laughter, and Happily Ever After Party. Have a wedding ceremony and reception in a grand party hall, and dress it up to how you imagined your dream wedding to be. With a big, open space, it’s way more versatile than a stuffy, cookie-cutter venue.
Corporate Events – Gather and Connect Beyond the Office Building. Forget about having corporate parties in the boardroom of your office building. Break out of the usual routine and enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere in a funky, classy Gastown party hall or a vibrant eatery.
Baby Showers – From Baby Bump to an Epic Bash. Baby showers aren’t your typical gathering where you say “hi,” eat, and bid goodbye. You need a place with plenty of room for gifts, games, and delicious treats, and a Vancouver party hall is a suitable venue for everything you want to do at the event.
Cultural Festivals – A Night of Dancing and Fun Memories. Vancouver is a diverse city and a melting pot of cultures, so it’s not uncommon to find festivals and other cultural events throughout the year. If you’re hosting one, it’s time to go beyond the typical park setting or run-of-the-mill venue—discover hidden hems on Giggster, like a large space with 2D projection, underground bars, and entertainment centers.
Are you throwing a party and need a nice place to get everyone together? With all the incredible party hall venues in Vancouver, which is the perfect space for your next event, you might ask. We’ll help you answer that in this guide, so you can get your celebration started right away!
Prioritize guests’ comfort. The best party experience for guests is your goal as a host, and the venue can mean the difference between guests raving about your party for years or them politely saying, "It was nice." For starters, consider the location, making sure it’s easy to get to whether they commute or drive. How about the space? You won't want guests to bump elbows every time they turn around or struggle just to get food and drinks.
Does it have the basics? The party hall may not have all the top-notch AV gear, but clean restrooms, a kitchen or catering area, and a decent sound system are a must. If it has tables and chairs, ensure they’re in good shape, and Wi-Fi access is always a plus.
Does it feel like a place you would want to party in? If not, chances are, your guests won’t enjoy it as well, so try to look somewhere else. It must feel welcoming, has good lighting, and matches the vibe you’re going for.
Versatile, spacious, and built for celebrations, party halls are the ultimate spot for events of all sizes, styles, and budgets. Although it’s a beautiful space to rent for your next party, it isn’t perfect, and there might be times when you’d have to consider other venue types.
Advantages
When you rent a party hall, you don’t have to worry about food stains, spilled drinks, your furniture getting rearranged by a dance-off, or having to clean your house before and after the gathering.
Unless you live in a mansion or an estate, your place is probably not built for a massive bash. With a party hall, not only do you have a room to invite everyone you want, but you also have a crew to help you bring your vision to life.
Many of Vancouver’s party hall venues already come with the good stuff, like sound systems, lighting, dance floors, and even a bar, so you don’t need to DIY everything.
Disadvantages
Many party halls have limitations on how long you can use the place, which can be a buzzkill and may make you feel like you’re on a tight schedule instead of having fun with your friends.
Vancouver isn’t cheap, and party halls in the city can be pricey, especially for huge venues in the city center.
Party hall venues may not feel as intimate as home parties, and it can be hard to put your own unique stamp on the space if it already has that professional look.
If all the good things about a party hall space outweigh the drawbacks, then it’s time to plan and make that celebration happen. Check out the following tips and hacks to inspire and give you ideas:
Nail Down the Basics – First things first, who is coming to the party and how many are they? Determine how much you can spend based on your guest count, the activities you want to have, and other event elements.
Set the Date and Time – Choose a date that works best for most of your guests, and think about the best time for the party. And to keep costs down, those off-peak hours—early mornings or late afternoons—are a good time to host an event.
Find the Ideal Venue – Venue size and location matter, and they can affect your guests’ comfort and enjoyment. The good news is that Giggster has party hall venues across Vancouver, and they’re easy to get to and accessible.
Work with Local Vendors – Don’t try to do everything on your own, even if it’s a small gathering. Get local help. Caterers, planners, decorators, entertainers, etc—they're your friends when it comes to celebrations.
Do you want to plan a legendary party while keeping your wallet happy? That’s possible with a few money-saving hacks we’re pleased to share with you:
Book way in advance (or last minute).
The early bird gets the worm, and it’s also true when you want to lock in lower rates. The earlier the book, the more chances you have to find cheaper party halls with discounted services. On the flip side, some venues offer last-minute deals if they have open slots. It’s a gamble, but it could pay off.
Can you keep the party short?
Of course, you can, especially if you’re on a budget! You probably don’t even need a full eight-hour party. A four-hour celebration can be just as exciting and way cheaper.
Are you willing to negotiate?
Don’t be afraid to ask for a discount. They might be willing to cut you a deal, especially if it’s a slow time for them. Plus, it never hurts to ask, and the worst thing that could happen is they say no.
Vancouver, BC, has tons of cool spaces, from art studios to elegant ballrooms, and you can find them all in one place on Giggster. Don't wait until the last minute—your dream party hall is just a few clicks away. Find your Vancouver party hall on the Giggster app today.
