Believe it or not, we are halfway through 2021 (congrats!) and if you are in charge of organising a company retreat, team bonding session or corporate event and have yet to compile a list of venues to have it at, we are here to help. For one, you would need a space. And besides the usual indoor event venues, why not hold it at an outdoor event venue in Singapore? Outdoor event planning isn’t too hard at all and plus, outdoor events come with a slew of benefits too.
The Perks
In the day, sunlight and fresh air contribute to a positive, amiable atmosphere. At night, opt for an outdoor venue that overlooks the cityscape. Essentially, an outdoor environment offers a relaxed mood for a fun, enjoyable respite, especially if you are planning a solemnisation ceremony. Moreover, outdoor events also allow for more creative options with catering, entertainment and even activities (yes, we are thinking of a BBQ party too).
In addition, one of the biggest benefits of an outdoor event venue is the space itself. While there may be certain restrictions with Covid-19 in play, having a roomy, generous open space allows you to decorate without many restrictions as compared to an indoor venue – what’s not to like?

But of course, if you are still unsure about outdoor events planning, we are here to help. Apart from team bondings and activities, there is a slew of other types of events you can organise at an outdoor venue.
It’s Not Just Your Team Bonding Activities That Need To Be Outdoors
Instead of having your intimate wedding reception or solemnisation ceremony in an indoor space, we propose an alternative: opt for an outdoor venue. An open garden or rooftop space adds a romantic element and ups the convivial ambience. And if you are one who loves lush greenery, a garden venue for your perfect solemnisation ceremony adorned with flora and fauna arches and petals is definitely ideal. Other corporate events such as networking sessions, wine tasting events and even product launches can be done at outdoor spaces too.

Based on the type of event you are planning, list down the amenities, as well as the size of the space and other health and safety protocols put in place to ensure the well-being of your guests is taken care of.
