Identifying the Challenges

After the festival, the venue faced several challenges. The grounds were worn out, and the interior needed a refresh to attract new clientele. Our task was to ensure the venue was not only restored but also elevated to a new level of appeal. We conducted a thorough assessment to identify key areas that required attention.

Assessing the Indoor and Outdoor Spaces

Both the indoor and outdoor spaces needed significant work. The outdoor area was particularly impacted, requiring landscaping and repairs. Indoors, the decor and furnishings needed updating to align with current trends.
