Terms and Conditions for Rehearsals
Booking Your First Rehearsal
You can make your first rehearsal booking over the phone or in person at the rehearsal reception desk. No membership is required but if you are a non-member you will need to pay for your rehearsal in advance.

Please call for our current membership deals and discounts.
Please note – when you book a time slot e.g. 6.30pm to 9.30pm this time period is for setting up, rehearsing and packing down your equipment. You must vacate the room by the end of the booked time in this example by 9.30pm. This is so the next band can begin setting up at the start of their booked time. Please plan your rehearsal to allow for packing up and leaving on time.
