ACCESS | |
"Access to The Grand Room is via the kitchens. Park in the designated space and take the kit through the rear kitchen loading door and turn right through a set of double doors directly into the room." | |

"Setup can be across the rear wall, over the rear left corner or along the left side wall. We had a band setup in the left corner so chose the left side wall which has ample room, sockets and directly faces the dancefloor. Perfect. - width available: at least 5m - height clearance: over 4m" | |
"Plenty of 13A sockets in close proximity to setup area" | |

"Weve worked here before (in a different room) but this time we were hosting the main attraction of the night. The Grand Room is like nothing you have ever seen before. Huge amounts of space, balconies, vast artworks and 20 foot long hanging chandeliers. Perfect venue for high end Wedding Receptions / Corporate Functions / etc. This is simply the best venue we have ever worked in - you will LOVE it !! " |
