Securing a suitable venue is the first and most crucial task in organizing your special event in Adelaide. All of the other details of the event cannot be arranged until you have booked a venue. No one can deny that food and entertainment also play an essential role in any special occasion. The platform, however, sets the scene and influences your guests’ experience more.
Every particular event venue has a limited number of people it can accommodate. That is why you must ensure that the unique event venue you choose can comfortably accommodate the number of guests you intend to invite.
Physical Size vs. Room Capacity
A lot of people confuse room size with capacity. The physical size of any particular event venue is essential, but it does not reflect its ability accurately. In other words, it does not matter how ample the space is, as much as how big it feels.
The room’s layout can make two venues of the same size feel entirely different. That is why you should check the capacity of the venue against the nature of your special event. A seated dinner, for example, will take more space than a standing cocktail party.
The comfort of your guests is our top priority at The Playford Hotel Adelaide, MGallery by Sofitel. Therefore, when we plan and estimate the capacity of our unique event venues, we keep in mind that the guests should be able to move freely, and the seats should not be placed too close to each other.
Different Venues with Various Capacities
At The Playford Hotel Adelaide, MGallery by Sofitel, we know it is essential for the success of any unique event that the venue’s space perfectly fits the number of attendees. Otherwise, the platform will feel crowded and claustrophobic if the room is too small. On the other hand, your special event will feel emptylackling ambience if the space is too large.
That is why we offer various function rooms with different spaces. Each exclusive event venue at our hotel can accommodate a different number of guests, depending on the seating layout.
