Pros and Cons of Sweet 16 Venues in London

Pros

Because of that, you will never be bored in London. In case you and your family want to celebrate your sweet 16 by going out, you will surely have a blast!

If you would like to explore museums as part of your sweet 16 celebration, then you're in the right place!

• Family-oriented
  London hosts many family-inclusive activities within the city. For your sweet 16, you can go on family walks to the Royal Parks, grab a hot drink at a cafe or get involved in an activity like the Trafalgar Square Treasure Hunt.

• Views
  From high-rise buildings with rooftop gardens to the Emirates Cable Car, you'll have access to great views in London. This is another option you can go for in choosing which activity to do for your sweet 16 celebration.

Cons

• Pollution
  The growing city of London means more pollution from cars, industrial buildings and airports. If you are predisposed to health ailments, this could be a negative contributing factor in celebrating your party outdoors.

• Delays
  Due to the large population and incoming tourist traffic, the streets of London are always busy. If, during planning the sweet 16 party, your schedule can't leave even a little wiggle room for unpredictable delays, this could be a little unnerving.

• Weather
  When planning outdoor events or travelling outside in general, the weather must always be considered. Rainfall in London happens often, so it's best to stick to hiring indoor spaces to avoid ruining your sweet 16 with bad weather. But if rain doesn't bother you at all, no one's stopping you from celebrating outdoors!
