Indoor venue is the Common Room in Maple Ridge Hospital Hospice building. It’s on the second floor on the opposite side of an open quadrangle so considerable moving of equipment is required. However, the room is small and doesn’t require big speakers nor headsets. Monitors and keyboard are adequate.

Outdoor venue is the large open-air quad in the middle of the building. Sound is difficult but doable in here; full sound is required and echos and feedback can be hard to tame.
