Look for package specials! Many venues offer birthday packages that can help you save heaps of money. You can also go for unusual venues like galleries and warehouses and plan the rest with the help of some friends. Hiring a backroom or an upstairs room at a bar is also a great option if you’re having a few guests. Prices tend to get higher during the holiday season, so it’s best to book your venue in advance to take advantage of lower prices. Consider less popular days of the week to host your party, like Tuesdays and Thursdays, as prices tend to be lower. Remember, flexibility is key to saving money when picking your venue.
