Remember, "to take" is an irregular verb (take/took/taken) and is the only part of the expression that needs to be conjugated with different tenses. For example: "the presentation took place in the meeting room" or "forty-three disputes with my neighbours have taken place in my garden this year".
2 venue: "Venue" can be used to describe any place where people will meet. It is most commonly used for musical or sporting events, for example, Wembley stadium is a football venue that is also used for concerts. However, "Venue" can also be used to describe the location of conferences, seminars, trade shows, exhibition and wedding receptions.
3 dress up: The term "to dress up as (someone)" means to dress in costume or imitate a person's appearance. This is commonly referred to as "fancy dress". For example: "I went to a fancy dress party where everyone was dressed up as Marie Antoinette". "To dress up" (without the "as") means to wear one's best clothes or dress formally. For example: the stars all dressed up for this year's Cannes Film Festival'.
