Do you need to bring your own grill? When you find a great venue, it might not be set up for a BBQ party, especially if you're planning on doing the grilling during the festivities. Pull in your own grill or explore catering companies that offer savoury BBQ dishes.
Is the space easily accessible for your guests? During the summer months, a BBQ party is ideal. With so many fabulous venues with natural light and outdoor spaces, you can't go wrong with a Giggster venue. But, you also want the venue to be accessible for your guests.

Hidden Costs for a BBQ Party
It can get pricey when hosting a BBQ party and your budget can quickly get stretched to the max. From refreshing cocktails and sweet treats to decorations and private hire venues, you'll want to save money where you can. With summer party venues starting at just £17/hour on Giggster, you can find a fabulous space in your price range. Check out some of these tips to ensure your budget isn't blown out of the water.
Does the venue have any add-on fees?
When comparing venues, ask what is included in the rental fee. Not all venues offer great amenities and may even charge for basic things such as tables, chairs, linens, and sound systems. Add-on fees can hit your budget hard, so make sure you know what is included when you sign the rental contract.
Did you include napkins in the budget?
This may sound like a simple expense, but BBQ is messy! You want to splurge for higher quality napkins and even moist towelettes and finger bowls for guests to clean their sticky fingers after munching on smoky, spicy BBQ ribs.
If hosting at a stylish restaurant is there a minimum spend?
When you decide to host a BBQ party at a gastropub or restaurant, remember that many do rent out private hire spaces on a minimum-spend basis. You and your guests will have to spend a specified amount on food and drinks; this can add up quickly and not be a budget-friendly option.
