Rock City is Nottingham’s landmark live venue at 8 Talbot St, NG1 5GG, delivering high-energy gigs and club nights since 1980. The Main Hall’s about 2,000 capacity, balcony sightlines and famously sticky floors have powered generations of breakthrough moments across rock, indie, metal, pop and electronic music. From intimate album shows to late-night parties like Get Lucky and Tuned, the calendar stays busy year-round. With crisp production, quick-service bars and a buzzing city centre location, it is a go-to stop for UK tours, special hometown shows and festival-style takeovers.
Planning a visit is easy. Expect clear stage views from the floor and balcony, a cloakroom and merch areas, plus age policies that typically run 14+ for gigs and 18+ for club events. The venue offers step-free access and an accessible viewing area in the Main Hall. You will find the NCP Talbot Street car park nearby, and Nottingham Station and Old Market Square trams put it within quick reach.
