7 Backyard Entertainment ideas to make the most out of your DIY louvered pergola

Adding a DIY louvred pergola to your outdoor space in Australia allows you to entertain easily in all types of weather. Geelong’s weather in Victoria can be wildly unpredictable, so having an undercover area ready with LED lighting and additional pull-down blinds to shelter you from wind and rain is a bonus.

Unique Pergolas, situated in Geelong, Victoria, offers louvred pergolas in various sizes in three distinctive colours (white, black, and grey). Hence, it’s easy to get that perfect fit for your backyard space. You can also request a manually operated pergola or one with a handy remote control for automatic opening and closing at the click of a button. It is a fun and easy way to add that wow factor to your entertaining space. Consider what direction you would like to place your DIY louvred pergola to capture the lightest sun while protecting you from the harsh UV rays during the middle of the day.

Some other helpful considerations and ideas to consider when designing your backyard with  a new louvred pergola are as follows:

  • Stay warm by adding an inviting backyard fire pit
  • Include a comfortable outdoor setting with soft, bright-coloured cushions and a coffee table.
  • Consider a wood-fired pizza oven, as it allows you to feed your family and friends in any weather easily
  • A spa or hot tub adds value, style and health benefits
  • Outdoor kitchen complete with mini bar fridge and built-in serving bench
  • An outdoor TV or projector to watch a movie or sport any time of the day or night
  • Strip heaters for the cooler months to keep you warm and cosy while enjoying your outdoor oasis.
