Outdoor entertainment ideas
Get audio visual ready with an outdoor TV and speakers
Setting up a home cinema in your garden isn’t as expensive as you might think. Outdoor TVs start at fairly modest prices, and when paired with waterproof audio equipment, can seem as good as the real thing. Just be sure to spread your speakers out evenly if you want to create a true cinematic effect. When you work with a Solihull audio visual specialist, they’ll be able to advise you on things like screen positioning so that light pollution doesn’t adversely affect your movie-watching.
Set the tone with ambient lighting
When you move from day to night, having the right kind of lighting is essential. Not only does it help you see, but also sets the mood for the evening ahead. Finding the right lighting for your outdoor entertainment areas depends on the space you have available, but there are lots of things you can do, such as:
- Creating silhouettes with ground-level lighting
- Using spike lights to make trees glow
- Use flames for a cosy vibe
- Use lights to create a welcome path for your visitors
- Use festoon bulbs for overhead lighting
- Invest in pool and hot tub lighting.
Create an outdoor bar
Whether you go full on Tiki bar or have something sleek and minimal, an outdoor bar is a great place to entertain guests. You could even use a great audio visual system to make the bar the central focus of your event, with the best sound, lighting and tech.
Get set up to play music
Getting sound right is the key to having a great time outdoors, so investing in quality audio equipment like Sonance or Bose speaker systems is well worth the money. When paired with the correct amplifier, speakers and controller, you’ll have an amazing sounding outdoor entertainment area.
Make a BBQ space
Summer offers the ideal time to get out the bbq, so don’t forget to dust yours off and have it ready to go! People often congregate around the bbq and outside bar area, so you could make this a focal garden entertainment area with floor cushions, festoon lights, great music and drinks.
Make a garden entertainment area
We’re all big kids at heart, and outdoor games can be full of fun. From giant jenga to boules and more, creating a garden entertainment area full of games is a great way to entertain your guests.
