Great venue, brilliant sound, large without anywhere really feeling too far away, and with good access to the three bars. Security and venue management were lovely and well organised. Only real let down was the toilets (a row of portaloos on the far side, that could only be accessed by squeezing through the crowd)

Went here to see the Remi Wolf gig. The performance space is great but the facilities are awful. Only portable toilets were available for use and due to the hot weather they were putrid. The stench migrated into the performance space and ruined the amenity. Sound quality was not great either - quite a bit of reverb. Some more seating outside would be great. Had a great time at the show anyway and the bar staff were lovely and security staff were efficient and effective.
