Opened in 2003, Rescue Rooms has grown from a former sports bar into one of Nottingham’s best-known live-music venues. With a capacity of around 450, it offers an intimate setting for emerging artists and established acts alike. Artists hosted over the years include The Killers, Calvin Harris, Stormzy, Bloc Party and Jake Bugg. Alongside its gig programme, the venue has a relaxed bar and a quaint outdoor patio for pre-show drinks or late-night socialising.
Visitors regularly praise its friendly atmosphere, strong sound quality and welcoming staff. Depending on the night, you might catch rising talent or join the dance floor at one of its late-night events.
