EMAZDAD'S VENUE INDEX
How to book the perfect venue
You need to choose your venue carefully, You want one that's not too big, a smaller hall is much better as it eliminates any extra un-needed run around space..
​
You want a hall that doesn't have a big echo, ,sports hall are particularly bad, and bad acoustics will spoil the children's enjoyment of the show, and make it hard for the entertainer to control the volume of his PA. Emazdad doesn't do birthday parties in Sports Hall or any venue with a bad echo for that reason.
​
Good parking is essential, the minimum parking you need is enough parking spaces for both you and the entertainer, but you must also think about where your guests are going to park as well. The are a few very nice halls around that Emazdad can not work in purely because there is no parking or the parking is too far from the hall which if it's raining causes a huge problem.
​
A carpeted hall is better than one with a hard floor, 1, the carpet eliminates some of the echo that you get in a lot of halls, 2, boys can't launch themselves down a carpeted floor and 3, It's more comfortable for the children when they sit on the floor to watch the show.
​
Balloons prominently placed outside the venue and if necessary at the end of the road, will help both Emazdad and all the guests find the party.
Please Note:- it's very impotant to ensure you get a contact Number, preferably a mobile phone number, for the key holder on the day. That way you have a number to call if the key holder doesn't turn up on the day. Occasionally due to mix ups this can happen.
​
Please help me keep this list up to date
The venue details on the list checked by me on an annual basis but the contact details may have changed since I last checked. If you find a phone number or website has changed please let me know. Thank you

The two small function rooms, The Roborough Suite & Bickleigh Suite are perfect for children's parties. Unfortunately the large Woolwell Hall is too big and has a bad echo
Southway Parish Church Hall: This hall is huge and has a very bad echo and cars cannot park close to the hall entrance therefore I recommend you book the Woolwell centre instead.
