It depends on the space. Many of the bar-led venues (e.g. Box Nottingham or Alea Casino) will require you to use their in-house catering and drinks, while some smaller or dry hire venues may let you bring your own catering. Always check the venue policy on Tagvenue. Each listing includes this information.

If you're planning a Friday or Saturday evening party, you should book at least 6 to 8 weeks in advance, especially if you're after popular venues like Slug & Lettuce Market Square or Ghost Nottingham. For off-peak nights or daytime celebrations, 3–4 weeks can sometimes work. But sooner is always better—last-minute availability is limited in central Nottingham.

Yes, many venues welcome DJs or live music, particularly private hire spaces like Manahatta Nottingham. Others offer their own built-in music systems you can plug into. Always check noise restrictions and curfews—some central venues may have limits if they’re in residential zones.
