Canal-side setting
If your chosen venue is beside the canal or close to a towpath, confirm the approved unloading point and equipment route with its operator. Keep guest walking routes separate from the caterer's vehicle and service access.

Newry / BEFORE YOU ASK
A little local detail.
A much clearer brief.
Discover Northern Ireland describes Newry's canal through the city, the Clanrye river and the museum in Bagenal's Castle, with the Ring of Gullion beyond. Explain which locality hosts the event rather than grouping every programme stop into Newry centre.
A museum or heritage visit
If the meal follows a museum or city-history visit, give suppliers the expected finish and transfer to the catering location. Ask whether service should suit an arrival window or needs a fixed seated start.
Beyond the city centre
If your event is towards the Ring of Gullion or another surrounding locality, state that area clearly and exchange the exact address privately later. Ask suppliers to include their actual travel, equipment and setup requirements in the quote.
The same event, clearly described.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
