Private Parties
Please note that for private parties, the house sound system is only suitable for background music (and is available at no extra cost), any party providing their own DJ should also provide all their own speakers, sound equipment & disco lighting. If the sound desk is required for a band / microphone, a Hen & Chicken approved sound engineer would be required at an additional cost. Where a private party does not require a food menu, an additional charge will be made for a bar tender service in the room (see ancillary charges).
