About We Are Scientists

Expect a guitar-driven indie rock show from a band who built their name on witty, hook-heavy songwriting and an even wittier stage banter. The early evening start suits a weekday gig, giving fans time to catch the set and still get home at a reasonable hour. Long-time followers tend to mix casually with newer listeners drawn in by more recent material, and the mood stays informal throughout. It's the kind of gig built on chemistry between band and crowd rather than spectacle.

Where to stay nearby

Nottingham sits right by the venue, making it the simplest choice with the widest hotel selection to match. Derby is a short hop away and offers a smaller but decent range of options if Nottingham's are full or pricier on the night. Sheffield is further out, roughly an hour by road, but its much larger hotel stock can be useful for those travelling in from further afield or booking late.

Nottingham — about 1 km away
