FAQs and Info

Accessibility

The venue can be accessed with a wheelchair and there is an accessible toilet on the ground floor. The Mezzanine level (where the baby chill area will be located) has no lift access

Bye bye glowsticks

BFLF made the decision to stop giving out glowsticks due to environmental issues with single use plastics. We try to be as environmentally friendly as we can at our events using biodegradable balloons where possible, recycling our mural pens and being mindful of the materials we use on our craft tables. People are still welcome to bring them. We’ve had loads of positive support for this, so we hope you embrace it too!

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

All ages very welcome, but activities are designed with 0-8 years olds in mind. Music is played at safe levels for everyone.

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?

Contact Sophie at sophie@bigfishlittlefishevents.co.uk

What’s the refund policy?

There is a no refund policy, but if you are unable to attend you may sell your tickets to someone else. If well in advance of a sold out event please email sophie@bigfishlittlefishevents.co.uk so we can try and match you with someone on the waiting list.

Tickets and larger groups

For families with younger children (8s and under) though all ages are welcome, as long as there are both adults and children in your party. Adult only groups are not admitted. A max of 3 children per adult in a family.

Each member of your group must have a ticket and pre-walking infants free (but ticketed). Will cost more on the door (if tickets available).

If attending as a large birthday party please ensure one adult to two children minimum. We will refuse entry to groups where there is inadequate supervision. If there are more than 4 adults per child in your group please email infonw@bigfishlittlefishevents.co.uk for pre-approval before buying tickets.

Safety

Adults remain responsible for their children at all times.

The event will be busy. The dancefloor is for adults and children to dance together. For indoor events low lighting/club lighting rigs (no strobes) are used.

Please be aware that events are standing/dancing with limited seating.

Each event is stewarded and risk assessed in advance.

Buggies must be left in buggy park outside the event space and will not be allowed on the dance floor.

A licensed bar will be open during the event but no glass is permitted.

Sound levels

Music level is set and monitored throughout to abide by WHO guidelines. This is far lower than usual clubs levels, but given the number of children attending there is a constant level of background noise during the event.

Toilets and nappy changing facilities

There are toilets on all floors and changing tables and/or mats will be available. There will be no high-chairs available.

Photography

We may photograph or film small parts of the event and by entering you are giving your permission for these to be used for BFLF promotion purposes.

Just a reminder…

Please be aware that BFLF is designed to provide a family-friendly, authentic club experience and is not a traditional children’s party or disco. There will be no kids’ music, games or DJ shout outs. The effect is to give families unity on the dancefloor – dancing together. DJs will be announced in advance of each party via Twitter and Facebook but may be subject to unavoidable change.
