What happens after I book?
Instant Book: you get a “Booking confirmed” email straight away.
Request to book: the venue has to accept the booking. Response times vary, and each listing shows the venue’s average. It’s usually 1 to 3 hours.
Company accounts with admin approval: your request goes to an admin first, and only then to the venue. The space may no longer be free by the time it’s approved, so book early.
Your confirmation email shows how to get in and your free cancellation deadline. You can cancel for a full refund within 2 hours of confirmation, whatever the venue’s policy.
Can I book for today?
Often, yes. Instant Book spaces default to today’s date. Bookings must fall within the venue’s opening hours. The booking box also shows how long you have left to book for tomorrow.
