Hiring facilities in 2024: a beginner’s guide

If you’re looking to hire facilities in 2024 – whether for a one off or ongoing event, activity or group, this is everything you should know and consider before booking a venue: 

Energy efficiency & lowering carbon emissions: Net Zero, renewable energy, driving energy efficiency and lowering carbon emissions are all significant topics of conversation for businesses and schools alike in 2024 and, as such, when searching for facilities for hire, expect to see schools making small changes to their hiring policies to save energy, money and – of course – the environment. 

Look for testimonials & reviews: this year it’s more important than ever before for schools, businesses, organisation and non-profits to gather and showcase customer testimonials and reviews – when searching for facilities for hire this year, make sure you read the reviews to get a good feel for individual, real-world experiences, not only of the venue or facility itself, but also of the overall customer experience(s). 

Don’t be afraid to ask questions: interested in a facility or venue for your next event but not sure of the hourly price or overall size of the venue in question? Ask! Making enquiries, asking questions and opening up conversations are extremely effective ways, not only to ensure you have all the information you need to book a facility with confidence, but also to get to know the people you’ll be doing business with. 

See the facility in person if you can: if you can, it’s a good idea to go and view the venue and facilities you’re interested in, along with the Venue Manager or Administrator, who can show you around whilst answering any questions you may have about the venue itself or the hiring process.
