Event spaces thrive on adaptability. Whether hosting a corporate mixer, birthday bash, or nonprofit gala, being able to offer outdoor space regardless of the forecast makes your venue more attractive—and more profitable. That’s where smart pergolas from Knutsen Outdoor shine.
These next-gen pergolas from Outdoor Elements are fully waterproof and come with built-in gutters, so guests stay dry and comfortable even during sudden weather shifts. Seamlessly attached to your building, they extend your usable space while maintaining your aesthetic. Choose from a variety of colors to match your environment, and elevate the atmosphere with lighting, heaters, and built-in audio-visual features.
Perhaps most impressively, smart pergolas are app-controlled, letting you adjust the angle of the louvers for perfect lighting or shade. Whether it’s a sunny awards ceremony or a moody evening cocktail party, you’re always in control of the vibe.
A study by IBISWorld found that venues with flexible indoor-outdoor offerings tend to command 15-20% higher rental rates (IBISWorld, 2023). That’s a big deal for owners looking to maximize every booking. Plus, with low-maintenance materials and tech-forward appeal, smart pergolas make your venue not just functional—but future-ready.
For modern event spaces aiming to stay ahead of trends, these structures offer the weatherproof wow-factor that today’s clients demand—and that your bottom line will appreciate.
