What it’s like
Live gigs with tickets from a fiver, though age checks mean under-25s need photo ID on the door.
This one's really for the older kids, the ones who want to go to an actual gig rather than a soft play with a band in the corner. Tickets start at £5 and climb to £14 in advance, with £15 on the door if you leave it too late. There's no booking fee tacked on, which they're quite proud of, and honestly it's rare enough to be worth a mention.
The catch that'll trip people up: anyone under 25 needs photo ID on the door, age verification or not, you're not getting in without it. Tickets aren't transferable either, so if your teenager's mate drops out at the last minute, you can't just hand the ticket over to someone else, it's tied to the buyer. Worth sorting who's actually going before you part with any money.
Booking is all done through their webstore, open all hours, and once you've ordered they process it by hand before emailing your ticket over to print or show on your phone. That manual step means it isn't instant, so don't leave it to the last ten minutes before doors if you want your ticket in hand.
