Hospitality
We have two in-house chefs and we generally cater for hot food on arrival for band and crew plus ‘packed lunch’ at the end of the show. In addition we can meet any rider specifications at cost to the promoter.

Curfew
A curfew of 23:00 hours will be enforced unless otherwise requested prior to the event.

Promotions
The nightclub and attached bar are extremely popular with local music fans. If supplied in advance posters and flyers can be arranged to be handed out during all events in both the venues for up to one month prior to the show. We also have the facility to advertise the event on in house TV/Plasma screens throughout both venues.

Audio Visual
For larger gigs in excess of 300/350 people we have a 15k rig that can produce in excess of 120 Db. The room is ‘dead’ and power hungry, ensuring a clean sound throughout the venue, we believe it to be the best sounding venue in Aberdeen.
