Outdoor events shouldn’t be limited to just the summer months. If you’re considering hosting an outdoor event in autumn, there are some ways to ensure it goes smoothly and pleasantly for your guests. In this article, you will discover some essential tips for preparing for an autumn event, including how to arrange container hire in Preston and beyond.
Prepare for Bad Weather
British weather is rarely predictable, which can be highly unfortunate for outdoor events. From unexpected heat to sudden stormy weather, it’s wise to provide strong shelter for guests to seek refuge should classic British weather conditions strike. While gazebos may seem tempting, often these are not the best solution as they can be easily blown away. Instead, choosing secure and protective shelter solutions such as welfare cabins can minimise the impact of the weather on your event.
Provide Heating
As the summer fades out for another year, often the temperature drops back to the recognisable chill found in cooler seasons across the UK. If guests become cold, they may be more likely to make a quick exit from your outdoor event, seeking warmth and shelter indoors. To prevent this from happening, we would recommend providing appropriate outdoor heating such as heat lamps.
Pick The Right Venue
While the venue might not be the centre of attention during your outdoor event, it is still vitally important to pick a sensible and accessible location to host your event. As rainy weather can strike during the autumn months, it’s key to choose a venue that isn’t easily flooded and won’t become muddy.
Find A Storage Solution
When hosting an event, you will likely have a large amount of furniture and supplies. To prevent things from becoming cluttered when not in use, it can be helpful to have a storage container, perfect for storing your goods. Compared to other storage solutions, storage containers are portable, allowing you to easily access your supplies on the site while also protecting your spare goods from damage or tampering.
Choose High-Quality Toilets
For an elevated event, it’s important to choose high-quality service toilets for your guests. These solutions offer both cubicles and handwashing stations. Welfare cabins also provide both male and female sides, providing privacy for your guests to use the bathrooms. Each of the handwashing stations will provide hot water too, offering your guests a comfortable experience overall.
