Now what is Nottingham famous for? No, no, not just that bloke in green tights who just ran around poking evil nobles! It also looks like it was famous for some lace stuff, but I didn't notice that either! Nope, 'tis Nottingham Rock City, lauded amongst rock fans, almost whispered of in revered tones by those who haven't been ...  Read the complete review

If you approach Nottingham via the Mansfield Road, Talbot Street is a turning on the left. Keep an eye out for it, it creeps up on you. There is a multi story car park at the top of Talbot Street which is the best, if not the only place to park. Rock City, due to it being licensed, is for 18's and over. With the exception of regular ...  Read the complete review

Rock city is touted as being the best rock club in the north by many popular rock magazines, so me and some friends travelled down from Sheffield to check out this venue. At first it was a little difficult to locate. Rock city is tucked away in a back street. Thankfully when we went into the scream pub round the corner, all we had to do was ...  Read the complete review

It was my 40th birthday a few weeks ago, my wife treated me to a weekend away. We stayed in Nottingham at a lovely hotel and after a day out at the American Adventure theme Park , we decided on a night out at the famous Rock City. We had heard allsorts of rumours about the place, one was from some feedback from a Ciao member saying you ...  Read the complete review

After 4 years living in Nottingham I visited this bar once, and that was once too many. If you like being surround by scruffy people who look like car-jackers then enjoy yourself, if you (like me) are not purely looking for the cheapest night out in town then leave this bar well alone. It is primarily a club but is just for 'rockers' ...  Read the complete review

Set in the dark and dingy recesses of a backstreet in Nottingham is one of the most unassuming and uninspiring venues I have ever been welcomed into! That place is Rock City, a focal point for many of my teenage years and even now in my ever-growing senility. The name Rock City may sound rather grand, but nothing could be further from ...  Read the complete review

If you're someone who likes a variety of rock and metal music, played loud (and i mean LOUD!), cheap drinks and plenty of headbanging, then rock city is the place to head for! Saturday is alternative night, the music includes some of the latest records as well as the classics. The best thing about the club is its vibrant atmosphere, people ...  Read the complete review

Rock City on a Thursday night has a variety of pop/dance music with cheap drinks due to it being Student night. It has a large stage where the DJ is situated and you can dance on there. No main dress code really but obviously you must be over 18. You can have more of a laugh here when compared to Media but i prefer the music and ahem...women in ...  Read the complete review

You want to pay £1.50 (£2.50 without NUS) to get in, you want to pay £1 a pint, bottle or shot? You want to hear classic tunes from 'Song 2' by Blur, to the Stone Roses 'Fools Gold'? You want to have that awful moment of the lights being turned on, the highlight of the night, when the theme from 'The A Team' blasts out of ...  Read the complete review
