Dear Black Cat Ticketholder

We are looking forward to welcoming you to the Black Cat Cabaret at the Grand Hall.

Please find below a run-down of everything from arrival time and seating to dress code.

Arrival and timings

If you have booked a dining ticket, arrival is from 6pm; please aim to arrive early as the dinner service must end in time for the show at around 8pm. We will have walkabout performances and live music early in the night, plus hand-made cocktails from the bar.

Guests who are not dining – whether on table seats and ringside seats on the main floor or mezzanine seats on the balcony – should arrive from 7pm and be seated by 8pm.

The show starts at approximately 8.15pm and lasts around two hours with an interval. After the show our bar will stay open until at least midnight and there will be DJs and dancing.

Bar and cloakroom

After you have arrived, the cloakroom is in the basement on the right; all items are £2.

Once diners are seated at around 7pm, all guests are welcome to use the main bar in the main hall, which has a full range of drinks and cocktails.

There is also a smaller secondary bar in the foyer for all mezzanine guests.

Dress code and photography

Dress code is not strict but please no ripped jeans or dirty trainers. A lot of guests get into the spirit of things so if you want to wear smart-casual, suits/dresses, vintagewear or extravagant then of course we welcome that.

Please no photography and especially no flash photography as it distracts our fabulous performers.

Getting there, getting in and out

As a ticket holder your name will be on the guest list at the venue. We would appreciate it if you could bring some form of ID (such as a bank card, driving licence or similar) just in case.

Venue address is The Grand Hall, Bidborough Street, London WC1H 9AU. Nearest station King’s Cross St Pancras. Take exit for Euston Road / Camden Town Hall.

Please note that the exit later in the night will be via the Euston Road exit of the building, so once you put your coat back on you’ll be leaving via a different route than you entered through. This is also the same place where the smoking area is located.
