When planning an event at a venue, one of the most common questions that arises is whether you have to use the venue’s audio-visual (AV) company or not. The short answer is no, you don’t have to use the venue’s AV company. In fact, there are several reasons why you might want to use an external AV company instead, so let’s dive in.
Firstly, external AV companies will often offer better consistency and level of service. They generally have more experience working with different types of events and venues, which means that they can better understand your needs and deliver the high-quality experience you’re looking for.
Cost is also a big consideration when deciding whether to use the venue’s AV company. External AV companies can often offer better prices than the venue. They don’t have the same overhead costs as venue AV companies and are likely to be able to offer more flexible pricing options or package deals.
Finally, external AV companies are generally more flexible. They will be able to provide you with more options for equipment, staffing, and scheduling. The venue may have specific requirements for AV equipment and setup, so it’s important to communicate these to the external AV company in advance to allow everything to run smoothly.
Ultimately, the decision to use the venue’s AV company or an external company will depend on your specific needs and preferences. Once you’ve chosen a reputable AV company, be sure to research and coordinate with the venue to ensure a smooth event. It’s important to review your contract, and ask questions to ensure that you are making an informed decision before signing anything but most importantly be sure that you’re happy with the level of service you will be paying for .
