Hate to say it, but this turned out to be a damp squib.
Overall rating: 3.5

Last year this party was fantastic, so I had high hopes for this one. Especially given how good the band is that was playing. I was quite disappointed on the night though.

The previous year (and most years before that I hear) was a pretty exclusive thing with limited tickets, table service, canapés, ****tail on arrival and fizzy wine at midnight.

This year however there was just a glass of "fizz" on arrival and a menu left optimistically on the table in case you wanted to buy a pizza, so it was really just like any other Friday night - no bad thing normally, but not something you'd normally pay £25 a ticket for. Actually, it wasn't quite like any other Friday night. They crammed the place to the rafters with standing tickets until it was nearly impossible to move. Paying my tab (I hadn't realised it would get that crowded) took just over 40 minutes. I understand that they want to make money like any other bar, but when I was buying the tickets, it would have been nice if they could have quickly mentioned that you get next to nothing for your £25 and a trip to the loo would be a 20 minute round trip requiring good, solid elbows and plenty of ambition.

The band were brilliant and played for 4 hours which saved the night from being a complete let-down, but I still wouldn't recommend NYE there again. It's a shame, because on any other night it's always a great venue.

Hi rockvixen,

Thanks for the review of the Carnival Divine show on September 19th.

We'll be adding the show starting time to the posters and flyers in future.

Thanks again!

Well worth the money
Overall rating: 4

On the whole this was a wonderful entertaining event. 3 differant girls doing two acts each with a male comedy singer and an adult puppet show in between. Lots of variety and will definatley go again as the standard was very high. The only down side was that the tickets said 7.30 and it didn't start until 9 but you have to get there early if you want to get a seat. excellant night.
