The Venue Dumfries Concerts

staff definitely suffer from small man syndrome, seems everyone knows

Went to see a band on the 1st floor on Friday night. Can't understand the need for large sofas all round the back of the dance floor where we wanted to stand. What an odd experience for a band to play to an empty floor with people sitting on sofas at the back...and the majority of the audience up the stairs at the bar??

Just avoid it, been going to the venue for a few years now and suddenly not allowed in for wearing joggy bottoms, so my partner had to use her fuel to go home so I could change into jeans , only to go back and say I still can't get in for wearing steal toe boots which I have wore every time I have been in , so basically just picking on me, so after 2 years I will no longer be returning, my business will be taken somewhere else until it is under new/better management

Place pretends to be posh by having a dress code but as long as you have a shirt any riff raff can enter. Every time I’ve been there I’ve always found there’s a creepy guy sitting in the corner staring or stalking women and staff don’t do anything about it. Need more staff, the place is quite small on the sky bar

Set on 2 floors, lower level dance music, upper level pop music. Pretty underwhelming. DO NOT hang around outside the entrance as there is a lot of trouble, particularly near closing time. Seems to be Mecca for young idiots who can't hold their drink spoiling for a fight.
