The handbook does not specifically mention that there should be a specific venue as long as it is comfortable to hold the meeting and away from interruptions.
When we started our second Junior Praesidium, we had to use one of the school classroom for the meeting as we do not have any room that we can use in the parish. Any place that you can set up your altar, big enough for the members to sit and preferably convenient enough for your Spiritual Director to go to.
If you want to know more about the whole set up, you can find the information from page 105 of the Legion Handbook. Hope this help you even a little.

Is this a new Praesidium that you are starting?

I love the Legion and I always offer the members to God through our Blessed Mother. With our Mother's help nothing is impossible and everything is achievable. I always look forward every Saturday because this is our meeting day. I have the meeting for the senior in the morning and the junior in the afternoon. I love working with the juniors and I love all of them. I am very fortunate to be a part of both Praesidium. Our members are all very good and devoted to the Legion.
I wish you all the best in your Praesidium and I hope you will find the suitable place for your meeting. You know what, when we were having problem on where to have the meeting for our 2nd Junior Praesidium, I was in tears and everybody was telling me that the Blessed Mother will find a way and true enough, the catholic school being part of the Parish allowed us to use one of their rooms for a meeting place,so put your trust in God and our Mother.

I love to hear how your Praesidium is going. What is the name of your Praesidium and where is it located?
