hello all.

this post is to enquire about what you kids know about booking procedures for all age venues (eg. garry oak, little fernwood, burnside etc.)

i'm (hopefully) starting up a new all ages venue at quadra schools annex. it's a sweet little two room spot.
please give any info on:

+pricing
+rules
+capacity
+etc.


thanks,

You are best off contacting the venues directly, as each one has different rates and regs. Many require a non-refundable booking fee used to hold your date pending the finalization of the contract and payment. You also need to be of the age of majority to rent, or have an adult that will sign as the tenant and be present at your show. If you by chance want rental info on Big Fernwood drop me an email.

capasity and rules are pretty dependant on the people your renting from so in this case the annex. - Fri, 31 Oct 2003 8:54am

I've rented pretty much every hall in the city and put on probably 80 or more AA shows, as SV said talking to the venues directly is the best way to get their policies. To get a capacity you should probably get the Fire dept to inspect the place to give you your occupant load.

But yeah if there's anything I can help you with feel free to email me. - Fri, 31 Oct 2003 1:40pm
