It’s home to venues like Alea Casino which suits both formal events and large parties. For a quieter, more scenic setting, Beeston has green surroundings and historic charm, while Cotgrave provides countryside views and a more private atmosphere, perfect for weddings and gala dinners. 

Many ballroom venues include tables, chairs, sound systems, and lighting in the base price or minimum spend. Some locations such as Holiday Inn and The Nottinghamshire also provide catering packages on a per-person basis. Others, bundle bar and food service into a minimum spend structure. Always confirm specifics with the venue before booking.
