Nottingham / A PLACE TO START
What would you
like to serve?
Choose a starting style. Add the date, guests and details on the next screen before sending.
Nottingham / BEFORE YOU ASK
A little local detail.
A much clearer brief.
Visit Nottinghamshire describes the Lace Market and Hockley as part of the Creative Quarter, with former lace warehouses alongside cultural venues and independent businesses. Confirm arrangements for your actual booking within that mixed-use area.
Fit food around creative activities
If a gallery visit, workshop or performance comes first, give the caterer its finish time and the return window. Ask whether the proposed menu works best with one start or staggered arrivals.
Mark the correct Creative Quarter entrance
Confirm the building, floor and unloading door directly with your chosen supplier. Ask whether your booking shares a lobby or corridor with other users, and agree how guests will find the private event space.
The same event, clearly described.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
