Popular rooftops for your event on the French Riviera
[[MORE]] ##The main criteria to consider when selecting the right rooftop for your event ###1. Capacity and space When selecting a rooftop for your event, it's crucial to check the capacity to ensure that the venue can comfortably accommodate all your guests. It's also important to consider the layout of the space to see if it can be arranged to suit your specific needs, whether that's for a cocktail party, dinner, or even a dance floor. ###2. Location and accessibility The location of the rooftop is a key factor, especially if you're looking for a central location or one with panoramic views. On the Côte d'Azur, for example, a sea view can be a major advantage. In addition, the accessibility of the venue must be taken into account, by checking the proximity of public transport, car parks, or the availability of shuttles to facilitate access for your guests. ###3. Atmosphere and design The design of the rooftop should match the atmosphere you want to create, whether it's modern, bohemian or chic. It's also essential to check the equipment and facilities available, such as furniture, shaded areas and decorations, as well as the possibility of personalising the space to match your vision. ###4. View and environment The view from the rooftop can add a spectacular dimension to your event, especially if it is panoramic. It is also important to consider the sound environment of the venue to avoid undesirable nuisance or, on the contrary, to exploit a pleasant natural sound environment that will contribute to the atmosphere of your event. ###5. Weather conditions Where the weather is concerned, it is essential to provide fallback solutions in the event of bad weather, such as tents or a quickly accessible indoor space. In addition, the presence of protection against the elements, such as parasols, misters or heaters, must be checked according to the season and the expected climate. ###6. Services and logistics The services offered by the rooftop are also decisive. Find out what services are included, such as catering, service staff, security and technical assistance. You should also check the technical infrastructure, in particular the quality of the sound system, lighting, and connectivity such as Wi-Fi or electrical sockets. ###7. Budget The cost of hire should be assessed in the light of your overall budget. Take into account potential additional costs such as cleaning, security or equipment. It's also worth checking whether there are any package options or discounts for off-peak events, to maximise your budget. ##Our advice for a successful rooftop event on the Côte d'Azur ###1. Choose the right rooftop To organise a successful event on a rooftop, it's essential to choose a strategic location that offers a panoramic view of the sea or the emblematic landscapes of the Côte d'Azur. Nice, Cannes and Monaco are just some of the cities with prestigious rooftops. Also make sure that the space can comfortably accommodate all your guests, taking into account the different configuration options, whether for a cocktail party or a sit-down dinner. ###2. Planning the logistical details Logistical planning is crucial to ensuring that your event runs smoothly. The weather on the Côte d'Azur can be unpredictable, so it's important to plan alternative solutions such as parasols, transparent tents or indoor space in case of strong winds or rain. In addition, check that the rooftop is easily accessible for all your guests, with lifts or ramps for those with special needs. ###3. Atmosphere and decoration The atmosphere of your event will largely depend on the theme and decoration you choose. Opt for a theme that complements the rooftop's natural surroundings, for example a chic white party or a Mediterranean theme. Lighting is also crucial to creating an intimate atmosphere after dark. Use lanterns, string lights or soft spotlights to illuminate the space. Finally, floral decoration can add a touch of colour and fragrance by using local flowers such as lavender, olives or citrus fruits. ###4. Catering and drinks For the catering, offer a light and refreshing menu that reflects the Mediterranean climate, with seafood dishes, Mediterranean salads and summer cocktails. Also consider offering a selection of custom cocktails inspired by local flavours, such as rosé de Provence, pastis, or cocktails made with fresh fruit. ###5. Entertainment and music Entertainment and music play a key role in the atmosphere of your event. Hire a DJ or a local band capable of adapting to the desired atmosphere, varying the musical genres according to the key moments of the evening. To add a fun dimension, consider interactive activities such as a photobooth overlooking the sea or a mixology workshop. ###6. Respect for the environment It's important to incorporate sustainable practices into the organisation of your event. Opt for the use of reusable crockery, recycled materials for decoration, and take care with waste management to minimise the ecological impact of your event. ###7. Communication and invitations Finally, communication with your guests is essential. Send out invitations that reflect the theme of your event and don't forget to include important details such as the dress code. Also use an app or guest management service to track confirmations and respond quickly to queries, to ensure a better experience for all your guests. ##FAQ ####What types of events can be held on a rooftop?

French Anti-Benefit Regulation for Event Planners
When planning events that involve healthcare professionals (HCPs) in France, it's crucial to understand the **French Anti-Benefit Regulation**. This law, designed to ensure transparency and fairness in healthcare, impacts how event planners can interact with and offer benefits to HCPs. Here’s what you need to know, simplified for event planning professionals. ## Navigating the French Anti-Benefit Regulation for Event Planners ### **What Is the French Anti-Benefit Regulation?** The **French Anti-Benefit Law**, introduced in **2020** and updated in **2023**, limits the types of benefits companies in the healthcare sector can offer to HCPs. The goal is to prevent undue influence over healthcare decisions by restricting gifts, payments, or hospitality. However, there are exceptions for certain benefits that are allowed under strict conditions. As an event planner, if your event involves HCPs or stakeholders from the healthcare sector, you must comply with these rules. ### **Key Exceptions for Event Planners** While most benefits are prohibited, there are specific exceptions that are relevant to event planners: 1. **Hospitality**: - You can provide **meals, lodging, and transportation**, but only within strict limits. For example: - Hotel accommodation: capped at **€150 per night** (including breakfast). - Meals: capped at **€50 per meal**. - Transportation and other costs for an event: capped at **€2,000 per HCP**. 2. **Participation Fees**: - Event fees, like registration for scientific or professional events, can be covered for HCPs, but they must be documented properly. 3. **Training and Research Grants**: - You can offer funding for **training or research** under strict guidelines. These must be pre-approved and documented in formal agreements. ### **How Does This Impact Event Planning?** Event planners need to be meticulous in adhering to the regulation. Here's how it affects your work: - **Budgeting for Hospitality**: Ensure that any accommodation, meals, or travel provided to HCPs remains under the capped amounts. It’s critical to keep receipts and records for compliance checks. - **Attendee Lists**: Review your list of invitees to ensure you are aware of who qualifies as an HCP. Medical students are particularly restricted from receiving any hospitality under these regulations. - **Agreements and Documentation**: All permitted benefits must be clearly outlined in written agreements. These contracts should specify the purpose (e.g., participation in a scientific event, research funding, etc.) and need to be reported to the relevant authorities in France, especially if the benefit exceeds certain thresholds. - **Advanced Declaration**: If the benefit provided exceeds a certain value, you must declare it to French authorities at least **eight days before** the event. This includes hospitality costs like hotels, meals, and transportation. ### **Practical Steps for Staying Compliant** - **Work with your legal team**: Ensure all benefits provided at your event are reviewed and approved by your legal or compliance team. - **Coordinate with suppliers**: Make sure venues, hotels, and transport companies are aware of the caps and regulations. - **Document everything**: Keep thorough records of every benefit offered, and make sure that agreements with HCPs or companies are signed and properly filed. By understanding the French Anti-Benefit Regulation and adapting your event planning processes, you can ensure compliance while still delivering valuable, professional events for healthcare professionals. If you’re organizing a healthcare-related event in France, these regulations will shape much of your logistical planning, so stay informed and work closely with your partners and suppliers to keep things running smoothly. ## **How Native Spaces Can Help You** At Native Spaces, we are familiar to managing event requests within the scope of the French Anti-Benefit Regulation, navigating its complexities with ease. Our team collaborates with flexible hosts that can adapt their offer to comply with established laws, ensuring that the venue aligns with these important regulations. We’re here to assist you in finding the ideal space to match your specific needs, ensuring a smooth and stress-free planning process that fully respects legal requirements.
How to Create an Event and Make a Booking on Native Spaces
First, it's important to understand the difference between **events** and **booking requests** on the Native Spaces platform. - **An event:** This is the overall event you're organizing (for example, a corporate seminar, a wedding, or a birthday party). This is where you define key details such as the date, time, event type, and guest count. Once created, you can link multiple booking requests to the same event if you're considering different venue options. - **A booking request:** This is a specific request sent to a venue host for your event. It includes the event details, a budget estimate, and any additional notes or requests for the host. A booking request is tied to a venue you're interested in, allowing you to check its availability or request a quote. This organization helps you centralize the information and easily track your requests. Now that you know this, here are the steps to organize your first event and make a venue request. ## **How to create a new event** ### **1. Make sure you're in Organizer mode** A. Before you begin, make sure you're in [**events**](https://native-spaces.com/article/welcome-to-your-booker-view) on your account. B. Click on **"My Events"** in the main menu.  ### **2. Create your first event** A. Click on **"Browse our venues"** to start your search.  B. Use the filters to refine your results (by region, venue type, budget, etc.).  ### **3. Fill in the event details** Once you've selected a venue, you'll be prompted to create an event by filling out a form. A. In the **"Choose or create a new event"** section, select **"Create a new event"**. B. Indicate whether the event is private or corporate, then specify: - **Event type** (wedding, seminar, etc.) - **Dates and times** - **Number of guests**.  ### **4. Review the budget estimate**  ### **5. Send your request**  ### **6. Explore other venues or request personalized suggestions** While waiting for a response, you can **search for other venues** on the platform or:  ## **How to use a previously created event** Once you've created an event, you can easily reuse it to make a new venue request. **Here’s how to do it:** 1. **Search for other venues**: Go to the venue search page, just like you normally would. 2. **Choose your previous event**: On the request page, go to the **"Choose or create a new event"** section. You'll see your previously created events there. 3. **Select your event** 4. **The information auto-fills**: As soon as you select the event, all the details (date, time, event type, guest count, etc.) will be automatically filled in the request form.  ⚠️ **Note**: If the venue you select is not suitable for the event you've created (for example, if it exceeds the guest count or doesn't accept that type of event), you won’t be able to choose that event from the list. In this case, select another venue that meets your needs. ## **Manage your requests in "My Events"** Go back to **"My Events"** to view all your requests, organized by event.  ### **Additional Tips** - Take the time to clearly detail your needs in the message to the host to avoid unnecessary back-and-forth. - Don’t hesitate to use the filters to refine your search and save time.
