From the very beginning prior to me even booking the space to the close out of my event, Amit and his team were wonderful. He was responsive to all my questions in a timely manner, accommodating, flexible to requests and really helpful when it came to managing logistics so that the day of my birthday party things ran smoothly. As far as the space is concerned, it's absolutely gorgeous! The ambiance, vibe and view are 10/10 and exactly what I envisioned, if you thinks it's beautiful during the day, it's even more stunning at night. If you're thinking about booking, don't hesitate to do so. You are your guests will be wowed!

The space was spacious, and the team was nice enough to accommodate us setting up a little earlier than expected which I'm absolutely grateful for! The location is very optimal as well, there's an LCBO and Shoppers close by.

Wow! This space is truly amazing and is only surpassed by the amazing customer service we received from Greg and Karen. The space is easily accessed by the freeway with plenty of parking. The interior is beautiful and was beyond my expectations! The covered entrance also helps a lot for rain or those scorching summer gigs. Greg and Karen are super helpful the entire way and very kind/hip folks. I will definitely be using this space again!

This was a beautiful space for entertaining! Property host was welcoming and helpful in providing whatever was needed to make a memorable event! Very responsive to messages/calls. The rental included the main level of the home only, but one thing a bit odd, I found out on arrival that a pet sitter was present in the home for dogs and cats on the upstairs level. No gate or door blocking the way upstairs. We never heard or saw them, until a child happen to make their way upstairs. It was just a little uncomfortable knowing someone else and pets were in the home, but overall a great space.

Let me just start out by saying.. Dealing with people who make every aspect of creating a vision easy, and are so helpful, makes everything smooth. This house is a dream. From the outside you have no idea what is going on in the back. The lights, the atmosphere, the vibe is just everything. It really is an outdoor oasis. It was a pleasure hosting my husbands 40th birthday in this house. If I ever hear of someone looking to have an event I am sure to recommend this place. You will not be disappointed here. 5 stars all the way!!!!!!

Top Features to Look for in a 40th Birthday Party Venue

What key features do the best birthday venues offer? Look for the following when comparing party venues and planning a birthday surprise.

Decide on the atmosphere you want to be in. The best 40th birthday party venues have the right ambience for the style of celebration you want to host. For example, a holiday cottage makes for a much more relaxed setting than a chic and stylish event space, so find one that suits the birthday boy or girl's desires.

Book at the most appropriate location. The best 40th birthday party venues will be easy for as many of your guests as possible to get to, so check factors like proximity to public transport and whether off-street parking is available.

Price is key. Birthday parties can be expensive occasions and the best party venues don't always come cheap, so make sure to only compare spaces that fit your budget.

Things to Consider for Renting a 40th Birthday Party Venue

There are lots of good reasons why you should look for birthday venues for your next celebration, but there are also a few factors that may cause you to rethink your party plans.

Advantages

  • You can browse 40th birthday party venues on the Giggster app to suit anything from small gatherings to huge celebrations. Booking a venue allows you capacity flexibility as opposed to maybe hosting in your own small apartment or house.

  • Formal and traditional, casual and relaxed—there are birthday venues to suit any style of celebration you have planned. Take advantage of amenities you don't have—like a pool.

  • A 40th birthday is an occasion worth acknowledging, so create memories that will last a lifetime by booking a unique venue and planning a celebration with every last detail catered to.

Disadvantages

  • The best 40th birthday party venues are in high demand, so expect plenty of competition when booking a space.

  • Sought-after 40th birthday party venues can also be quite expensive, so you may need a little extra room in your budget. Set your budget and then choose a venue that fits.

  • Throwing a party at home means that you can set the hours, while a venue allows for a specific time slot.

How to Plan a 40th Birthday Party

Set Your Budget – Your first job is to work out how much you want to spend on this special occasion, so be sure to set a realistic limit.

Choose a Birthday Party Venue – Compare 40th birthday party venues on the Giggster app to find your ideal private hire space. Whatever you're looking for in a location—a private dining area, private hot tub, luxury cottage vibes, a heated pool, a city centre location, a covered outdoor area, multiple bars, or anything else—shop around for the perfect space.

Sort the Food and Drinks – Work with the venue's chef or your own caterer to plan a custom menu for your birthday surprise. Don't forget to also ensure that there's a well-stocked bar—whether that means beer and wine, bespoke cocktails, or anything else.

Book Entertainment – If you want live music, party games, or other entertainment for the event, make the necessary arrangements now. Organising a band or DJ takes planning and notice ahead of time.

How to Save Money on a 40th Birthday Party

You've got a great party idea, but hosting the special event you want can be difficult on a budget. Use these simple tips to help reduce costs.

Start planning early, making a list of must-haves and must-dos.

Start planning the birthday bash as far in advance of the big day as possible—this will give you the time and flexibility you need to find the best deals.

Shop around for every aspect of the party.

When it's time to buy gifts, book a birthday venue, or book vendors, take your time to shop around for the most affordable options. Did you know that birthday venues on the Giggster app start from as little as £13/hour?

Expect extra necessities.

Leave a small portion of your total budget aside to cover any unexpected expenses that arise during the planning process—trust us, something pretty much always crops up.
