Questions about planning your event

What makes 3Danks suitable for a brand activation?

The venue combines an open main floor, a 10.4m ceiling, a 117m² mezzanine and adjoining rooms. This gives agencies room to plan a central activation plus arrivals, production and back-of-house zones.

Can we install a custom activation build?

Potentially, subject to the design, access, safety and venue requirements. Send dimensions, materials, power needs and the proposed bump-in plan so the team can assess the build accurately.

Can the venue support filming and creator content?

Yes. The venue is suitable for content production alongside an activation. Include the number of crews, equipment, sound needs and intended filming areas in the event brief.

Does 3Danks supply activation production?

3Danks is primarily a dry-hire venue. Your agency or production team can bring the specialists and suppliers needed for the campaign, while the venue team confirms access and available infrastructure.
