Brook Info

Disabled Access

We now have a wheelchair-friendly front door and a new disabled toilet downstairs. We are regularly visited by wheelchair users. If you have any comments to make you can make them via the contact :: page, or you can chat to one of the staff or managers when you visit The Brook. Most of the changes that we have made to The Brook, have come from customer suggestions. If you don't tell us - we won't know.

Smoking Policy

In compliance with current UK law, The Brook has a strict no-smoking policy.

Age Policy

The Brook is an eighteen plus venue, although children of fourteen and upwards can come to shows if accompanied by an adult over the age of twenty one.

No more than two fourteen plus per adult.

Please note that on the advice of Southampton Police - we only accept Passports or Photo Driving Licences as acceptable proof of age to buy alcohol. We do NOT accept any other form of age identification. We do NOT accept any national proof of age scheme cards. If you are lucky enough to look young - you will need I.D. If you are not sure - phone us before purchasing your tickets.

Under 16's MUST be off the premises by 12 Midnight.

If you are bringing under 18's with you, we accept any form of I.D. for them.

Under 18's will not be admitted to Comedy Nights, as we feel the content provided by some of the comedians is not suitable for minors.

Acceptable Behaviour

The Brook prides itself on being a trouble free venue. We do not tolerate any un-acceptable behavior. We strive to make a safe, friendly atmosphere for our customers, staff, bands and door staff, whilst giving them a rocking good time.

Parking

There is plenty of street parking on Portswood Road and in the Industrial Estate behind us. We have a good relationship with our neighbours, and the People who run the industrial units behind us do not mind our customers using their car parks in the evenings. Despite this - the lorry park is used 24 hours a day and we put parking cones out each night to enable the safe passage and parking of the lorries. Do not move the cones or we may have an irate lorry driver interrupting the show - reading out your number plate!

Do not leave your car overnight in Clarke Lane's car park (the rough gravel one), they clamp cars between the hours of 7:00am and 7:00pm, so you can park there during a show - but don't leave your car!

We have a good relationship with local Police, and their advice is as with any city centre, do not leave anything valuable on show in your car when you park it. On the rare occasions when there has been a break in, it is when someone has left their mobile phone on the dashboard - and the kids just can't resist.

Opening Times & Show Times

Opening times and showtimes vary, depending on the day, the artist, and whether there is a support or not. The times shown below are given as a rough guide and may be subject to change. Please check the times when you book your tickets. To avoid disappointment buy your tickets in advance and get here early. The Brook can not be held responsible if the band starts early. If you are late we may make you stay behind to stack chairs and write 100 lines!
