Rock City Night Club in Nottingham

Reviews

1. Mark Burns ★★★★★

   Friendly atmosphere for a renowned venue. Good acoustics and great mix of bands playing there. Intimate size so it's easy to get close to the stage if you want to be at the front. Drinks cost not too bad for a music venue. Cloakroom is available for jackets at £3 which again is reasonable. Great night seeing the Inspiral Carpets with a load of music fans.

   Been to a few gigs here now and its just a great place! Dizzee Rascal didn't disappoint! Always avoid the bars on ground floor, ppl queuing! Upstairs literally ordered straight away no queue. Small enough to feel close to artist big enough for atmosphere. We'll be back soon Rock City!!

   Usual fare - plastic glasses yet ok beer. Spirits you double up for £2 so be rude not to. Has a dance floor and different music downstairs with neon lighted tables. Upstairs floor space is taken up mostly by dance floor. I've seen many a gig here. Here's a pic from the mixing decks at a recent gig. If you can get an invite to backstage after party it's an interesting look as it's all black and pink. Sounds awful but looks great. Well worth a visit but don't wear your best toggs.

   Great venue. Security staff brilliant, friendly and even picked us out in particular to give us a bands set list at the end of the show. Brilliant night drinks well priced also. Can’t wait to go back.

   Great venue. First time I have visited rock city, and it was fantastic. Went to see wet leg, and they were amazing. Close up and personal experience that is just something else.

   As good a night as I've ever had at Rock City watching the growth of Mongolian rock legends The Hu. Rock City never disappoints - the intimacy of the venue means nobody leaves without a sweat on, as long as the band performs, generally so does the crowd! The only issue tonight was a lack of bar staff on the ground floor bar (to the right of balcony access steps) which meant still being in the queue when to the stage came The Hu (poetry!)! Other than that, there's never enough facilities to serve everyone at once but they do a fantastic job. If you've never been to Rock City then try it - it has a reasonable balcony so from most areas the stage is close. I love it & will be back. However, much like London's tube, towards the front is tightly packed & you can only hope everyone has a similar BO bash routine as you..... unfortunately that's not always the case!

   Great venue. Everyone really nice as in my wheelchair. First time seen The Beat, they were amazing. The lead singer sounds as good today as he did when they started.

   Easy to get, the staff are good you get some good views and prices at the bar are not bad. However few issue are that sound always sounds bit off. The biggest issue is they allow smoking right at the door and then there is a draft into the venue. So if you're at the back near the doors you get 2 d hand smoke.

   Visited Rock City for the first time to see Glass Animals perform. I found it to be a really cool venue which was nicely laid out and included a balcony for a wider view. There was several bars to buy drinks from and easily accessible restrooms. Couldn't find any fault with the sound system and enjoyed how intimate the venue felt. It did feel a little bit packed at times but I speculate this was more to do with who was performing than oversold tickets.
