Birthday party venue: why is a school the ideal venue for a birthday party?

If you’re looking for a birthday party venue, your local school could be the ideal choice – here’s why…

Why a school is the ideal birthday party venue

Easy to find: especially if you have friends, family and loved ones travelling a long way to attend the birthday party in question, you’ll want to ensure any birthday party venue you hire is easy for everyone to find – whether driving or relying on public transport and – typically – schools are easy venues to find; well-placed at the heart of their communities, with great transport links.

On-site parking: alongside this, most schools also offer free on-site parking or, if not, parking at a location close to the venue. This makes getting to and staying at the venue in question much easier on those driving, whilst aiding a comfortable and pleasant experience – removing the stress we all sometimes feel around finding a good, inexpensive [free!] place to park!

Generous facilities and spaces: schools have to cater for large groups of people – whole school assemblies in halls that comfortably fit 100+ children, classrooms to teach 30+ pupils at any one time and large MUGA pitches for after school activities, for example. With this, schools also offer various facilities and activities to their pupils in order to provide an enriching and fulfilling learning experience for every young person they teach. As such, school facilities tend to be generous in size and diverse in range; providing you with a number of suitable options to choose from for your upcoming birthday party. 

Supporting your community: by choosing to host a birthday party at your local school, you’re also choosing to support your local community; the families that live in the area and the children that attend the school. The additional income generated for schools that hire out their facilities to the community is invested back into the school; developing and enhancing their offers both during school hours and even outside of school hours. 

Local and affordable: another benefit of choosing a school is simply the fact that they’re affordable and the school you choose will likely be local to you, making your local school an ideal choice of venue for a birthday party – a local venue often making organising, communicating and planning with the venue much easier.

In short, when organising a birthday party and looking for an affordable, well-equipped venue that’s easy to find and offers a range of options, consider your local school first; it’s likely an ideal choice of venue!
