just a bit off info on Birmingham



£4m bar concept, comedy and nightclub opening in Birmingham

A £4m entertainment venue is due to open in Birmingham's Broad Street, which will include Jongleurs, the largest comedy club in the world.

Click here to buy tickets, or call the box office on 0870 78 70 707.

Risa, which will open next to the former Ronnie Scott's on June 28 and create over 100 new jobs, will have a capacity of 2,400 - making it one of the biggest clubs in the city.

It will contain six different bar and dance areas as well as Jongleurs, and promises to bring the very best of the UK and international comedy circuit to Birmingham.

Operations director Jez King said: 'It's a great new concept and we reckon the people of Birmingham are going to love it. Risa is stylish and fashionable but friendly, unpretentious and great fun.'

'With Jongleurs, it will provide the ultimate all-round night out. You can enjoy a quiet drink before the show, have a meal, be entertained by top-class stand-up comedians, then dance until the early hours in one of three club rooms or relax and lounge in one of our two chill-out bars.'

Risa has been designed to ensure there is an area to suit every mood or occasion, from the grand entrance hall with sweeping staircase, glass lift and suspended floating floor to a sophisticated downstairs cafè and dance bar, which is the perfect place to meet for lunch during the day and the ideal starting point for a night out on the town after work.

Upstairs, clubbers can choose to dance to the latest sounds; relax at sunken tables and enjoy a drink with friends; or cool down in a stylish chill-out bar illuminated solely by the lights from the drinks cabinets. There's also a lounge where private parties and VIPs can party or watch TV behind luxury-gated booths.

Steve has just called them and sent me this pm...

Given them a ring it is the Prancer night with meals starting at £6.50.

with the bookings can be done individ or as a group if done individ fiatforum would need to be placed on the booking form, the problem being is how quick the seats go at pesent they can cover us but if we wait for a group book could find not enough seats. if people book as individs quickly would more than likely get more people in.

Steve

Right is there any objections to this as we need to get booking asap

thanks for that steve :)

Dicuss!
 
yeah why not....

If you want to put up a thread to get numbers then do a screen grab on the prancer night at the start of the thread.

The meals will be extra but not much from what steve has said...

Also people need to put on the booking form they are part of the fiatforum party...

I would do the thread myself but its impossible to do a grab at work :(
 
Can i ask a stupid question?

Where does it say exactly where that jongleurs is? Is it the place inside the holiday inn :confused:

Well, when we did the Midlands meet earlier on this year, we all stayed at the Premier Inn or something! BUT Jurys was only a couple of quid more, looked really impressive [plus Ben rates it ;)] - so I reckon I may go for that one....
