The Carlton Cycles Bar - Private Hire

Got a small celebration but struggling to find a cost effective venue?


You can now hire the bar area at North Notts Arena for a private event of around 70 guests by arranging an exclusive booking directly with the venue team.

The space works well for birthday parties, engagement celebrations, corporate socials, cycling club events, live music nights, and private gatherings.


For a group of 70 people, the venue would typically offer:

  • Exclusive or semi-private use of the bar area
  • Flexible seating and standing space
  • Access to the licensed bar and drinks packages
  • Options for buffet food, sharing platters, or external catering
  • Space for a DJ, live music, speeches, or presentations
  • Custom decorations and themed setups
  • Evening or daytime hire slots

A typical private hire process would be:

  1. Contact the venue with your preferred date, guest numbers, and event type
  2. Discuss layout options for approximately 70 attendees
  3. Choose food and drink packages or minimum spend arrangements
  4. Confirm entertainment needs such as music, screens, or a dance area
  5. Pay a deposit to secure the booking

It’s best to book several weeks in advance for weekend dates, especially during summer and Christmas periods.
