The Legal Risk Score of a Venue Hire Agreement Template is Low

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • The document allows the licensor to have significant control over the event, including selecting preferred suppliers and adjusting event details, which could limit the hirer's flexibility and choice in how the event is managed.
  • The hirer is responsible for any damage to the venue or additional costs incurred during the event, which could lead to unexpected financial burdens if the event does not proceed as planned.
  • The licensor retains the right to cancel or suspend the event under certain conditions, which could pose a risk to the hirer's investment and planning efforts if the event is unable to proceed.
