Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the space when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- The right licence for alcohol: the venue’s licence or a Temporary Event Notice
- Space for guests to queue at the bar
- A spot away from neighbours’ windows if the bar runs late
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise.

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
