The Weekend Takeover at Old Schoolhouse

26th - 28th June

Payday’s landed, the weekend’s calling, and having a quiet one in doesn't feel quite right. Swing by ours, where the tunes are loud enough to get you dancing in your seat and the drinks are exactly the excuse you needed.

This is our Weekend Takeover, where we make sure there’s something for everyone. Fancy a cheeky £3 drink to kick off the celebrations? Want to stick around for the big game, live events, or a competition? We’ve got you covered. So, gather your gang, ditch the sofa, and let’s make payday weekend one for the memory books (and maybe a few Instagram posts).

One unforgettable night out at one of the world’s most iconic venues, all sorted for you. All you need to do is fill out the form below, and you’re in with a chance. Simple really.

Payday energy hits different

There’s something about a pub on payday. The buzz at the bar, the background chatter, the shared relief that the weekend has officially arrived. It’s not something you can recreate at home.
