H&H COMMUNITY TICKET SCHEME

❤️ COMMUNITY TICKET SCHEME – FREE TICKETS TO CLAIM EVERY WEEK ❤️
A new Hare & Hounds initiative, offering free entry to select shows throughout the week, released every Wednesday until the end of December! With up to 30 Free Community Tickets to give away each week, make sure you’re subscribed to our mailing list to take advantage of this limited time offer.
Please note: As we would like to see the tickets go to those who need it most, we ask that you be mindful and purchase your entry as normal if you have the means to afford it.
Why you might ask? With the venue being no stranger to the hardships of the pandemic and beyond, the initiative is a chance for us to give back to a community that’s been so instrumental in supporting our independent business – we want to do our part in creating a club and live music environment that’s both accessible and affordable even on a shoe-string budget!
If you’re a subscriber already then you don’t need to do anything, just check your inbox every Wednesday to see what’s on offer for that week. If you’re not a subscriber yet, simply follow this link to sign up: https://mailchi.mp/leftfootvenues/harehounds-subscribers!

POST-JULY 19TH COVID SAFETY GUIDELINES

Please Familiarise Yourself With The Latest Measures

After 16 long months the Hare and Hounds has finally opened to full capacity.

Whilst we’re delighted to be returning to something resembling normality, we are also very aware that we have a responsibility to our staff, customers and artists alike to create a safe environment that everyone can enjoy and feel comfortable in.

We will be taking the following steps to do so:

  • For the next few months, our staff will continue to wear face coverings and wash & sanitise their hands regularly

  • There will be dedicated entrances for V1 & V2 to avoid congestion points

  • All high contact surfaces will be regularly cleaned by staff

  • Our staff will do thorough deep cleaning after each show

  • We will create as much air flow as possible around the building

How you can help:

  • If you have Covid19 symptoms please stay at home, take a test and isolate as appropriate

  • Get vaccinated

  • Take regular lateral flow tests before coming to events and do not attend if you are positive

  • Wear a face covering. Whether you do so or not is completely your choice relevant to what you feel comfortable with.

  • Wash hands regularly around the building and use hand sanitizers when entering our venues

  • Show respect and understanding toward other people’s choices

To be clear: we will not be excluding anyone from our venue who hasn’t made these choices, but we do ask that you take yours and other attendees’ personal safety seriously.

Please be considerate to staff and customers who may feel anxious and cautious about the easing of restrictions. Let’s make sure we look out for each other and protect our music loving community.

If you do feel under the weather and are showing symptoms of Covid19 or have recently tested positive, please stay at home.  If you are unsure you can request a rapid flow test for free from the Government’s website. More info on the latest guidance here also:
