Choosing A Conference Venue In Cape Town

By Johannes Stiefel

Selecting that conference venue can proof to be a difficult task. Typing ‘Cape Town conference venues’ into Google will verify that. In general, variety is the spice of life – however looking for a needle stack is not. With this in mind, carry on reading and find all the questions that will need answering when choosing your ideal conference venue.

First and foremost – Is the venue suitable?

Your first question is usually asking yourself whether or not the venue compliments your corporate image and also whether it communicates the purpose of the function. A huge hall with it’s very own paintball arena portrays something other than a boutique Cape winelands conference venue. Finding harmony between the occasion, the delegates and the venue is the primary goal.

Additionally, one would have to consider size

Is the venue capable of seating all the delegates suitably. If so, does it lend itself to delegate comfort and ease of maneuverability. Can all delegates hear what your guest speaker has to say — if you have chosen one. Every word coming out of your guest speakers mouth is more than likely costing you money. Best to make sure that everybody can hear them.

Also, you’d need to enquire about facilities.

Does the conference venue offer a projector or white board? Is there internet access or fax facilities? Does the conference venue provide stationery, the usual pens, pencils, staples, paper clips, or are delegates expected to provide their own. Answer these questions first, and planning that conference day will be that much easier.

Cost is obviously a matter of concern

Are the rates concerned well within budget allowances. If so – what does the rate include. Does the rate include accommodation, a drink, a meal a ride home. Usually the conference venue is charged for and all extras such as a meal and/or accommodation are charged for additionally.

Lastly, there is the matter of location

If your delegates are expected to make their own way to the venue, is the venue conveniently located? Can delegates reach their destination via car on a road, or will they have to make alternative transport arrangements? For instance, a Durbanville conference venue will be far more suitable, than one located in Bonnievale, for a Cape Town based company.

All of the above information can be obtained relatively easily. Simply by dropping the potential conference venue an email or a quick phone call, you could have all of the above questions answered in no time. Some of the more web savvy conference venues might even answer all your questions on their website. Just like any function, whether corporate or private, it’s all about location, location, location – so spend a fair amount of time choosing one. After all, the success or failure of your conference depends on it.
