COVID-19 UPDATE [20/03/2020]
following from our previous statement and with the daily changes the Government have put in place, The Venue will remain closed from Friday 20th March until further notice. Rest assured we are working harder than ever to re-schedule the majority of the upcoming shows and private events to later in the year or into 2021, so that when the lockdown is over, and it will be, we will have plenty of events for everyone to come and party with us!
If you have a ticket for one of our upcoming shows that is being re-scheduled you will automatically be notified via Gigantic or SEE Tickets (our only ticketing outlets) with information on the new show date (of which your ticket will be valid for), or you will have seven days to claim a refund if you cannot make the new date. We will do our best to notify via our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram regarding any changes and for ease we will highlight the new date in our 'Recent Announcements' tab below.
stay at home, stay safe and look after one another - we will see you on the other side xx
