What is a Preferred Venue?

A Preferred Venue is a property that has an established relationship with your organization or with Bizly. These venues are often highlighted because they offer consistent quality, specific amenities, or pre-negotiated corporate rates.

How to Identify Preferred Venues


When you are searching for a space in the Sourcing stage, look for the "Preferred" badge or star icon on the venue’s listing. This badge indicates that the property is a top choice for your company’s meetings.


Why Choose a Preferred Venue?

Choosing a preferred property can offer several advantages for your event:

  • Contracted Rates: Many preferred venues have pre-set pricing (MSAs) with your company, which can lead to significant cost savings.

  • Streamlined Approvals: Because these venues are already "vetted" by your organization, the internal approval process for their contracts is often faster.

  • Reliability: These properties are familiar with your company’s specific meeting standards and technology requirements.

  • Exclusive Perks: Preferred partners may offer additional benefits, such as complimentary Wi-Fi, room upgrades, or waived meeting room rentals.

💡 Pro Tip: Using Filters

You can quickly see all your company's top choices by using the "Preferred Only" filter in the search results. This is the fastest way to plan a meeting that is guaranteed to meet your organization's compliance and budget standards.
