Open Venues<\/a>, a new event venue rental platform, is providing exclusive access to some of America\u2019s rarest spaces, like the red sandstone caves in Moab and the lavender fields near the Mogollon Rim. Open Venues is a new division of Cloth & Flame<\/a>, a Phoenix-based event agency that creates experiential, immersive experiences.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt its core, Open Venues is a love letter to the world\u2019s most beautiful places. It was created to nurture lasting connections between people and place,\u201d says Matt Cooley, co-founder of Open Venues. \u201cOur goal is to help create magical memories while simultaneously protecting and respecting the destinations. We\u2019re seeking to not only curate spectacular venues but to build a community of people who care about these spaces as much as we do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users begin the experience by discovering and comparing locations online before a concierge guides them through the booking process, which includes venue selection, site scouting, booking and event execution. Once a venue has been chosen, Open Venues works to help facilitate the event from start to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every venue is handpicked and researched to understand its character and potential for one-of-a-kind, sustainable events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
