THE BOX IS ABOUT TO GET BIGGER !!!
After three great years we will be finally developing our Basement (yes we have one !!) into a state of the art bespoke, dirty, sweaty , bloody and grubby (in the nicest sense)  live music venue and club with a capacity of 300. The plans will go up on site in the next few weeks with the spec of the venue and a timescale for the works to be completed. We are extremely excited about the prospect of adding another floor to our already exciting wee venue and thank the thousands who have attended and hope you will join us when it happens and see some more great gigs and club nights over two floors. More to follow...
