A dry hire venue is an empty event space. It is hired out without any additional services or equipment included. The venue provides the physical space, but you are responsible for organising all other aspects of the event, such as catering, decorations, audio-visual equipment, and furniture. Dry hire venues allow you to customise every detail of your event to suit your specific needs.

- The Event Space at Custom Lane is a true blank canvas with its all-white walls, floors, and ceiling. The venue can accommodate 60 to 80 guests for almost any type of event for only £45 per hour, £145 for evening hire, and £180 for all-day hire.
We know we said that dry hire venues don’t usually offer any catering. Still, it’s hard to beat the convenience of being able to arrange this directly with the venue.
