Music & Entertainment

Our staff may request that music is turned down if necessary. Repeated failure to comply may result in the music being stopped or the function ending early.

End of Function & Equipment Removal
The Function Room must be completely vacated within 15 minutes of the agreed function finishing time to allow our team to clean.
If you're arranging live music, please ensure your performers are aware of this requirement and can pack away and remove all instruments, speakers and equipment within that time. All guests, decorations and personal belongings must also be removed.
