The evening began with a leisurely 5pm arrival, where we were greeted with a welcome glass of fizz and the opportunity to indulge in unlimited drinks (including a selection of wine, beer and soft drinks) for the next three hours. This generous offering set the tone for the evening, allowing us to relax and enjoy the anticipation of the upcoming show.

Opting for the Amplify Club Hospitality experience, we were treated to a sumptuous four-course dining experience that surpassed all expectations. Despite the bustling atmosphere of the restaurant, the speed and quality of service were remarkable, with each dish presented immaculately. The modern decor and panoramic canal-side views provided a picturesque backdrop for our meal, creating a truly memorable dining experience.
The service throughout the evening was exemplary, with staff displaying genuine warmth and attentiveness. We started on pressed ham hock and pickled carrot terrine, with Beef medallion, mini steak pie, dauphinoise potatoes, celeriac puree and thyme jus as our main before finishing with a naughty but very nice chocolate orange brownie, blood orange gel and amaretti crumb. From the private entrance to the interval cheese share selection, every detail was meticulously executed, ensuring our comfort and enjoyment at every turn.

Our Premium seats afforded us uninterrupted views of the stage, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the show. With the convenience of taking our drinks to our seats, we were able to enjoy every moment without interruption. Another standout feature of the Amplify experience was the availability of private bathrooms, a luxury that is particularly appreciated at a busy event like this. The absence of queues added to the overall sense of exclusivity and comfort.
There’s no doubt the Amplify Premium Package truly amplified our night out, providing us with a luxurious and unforgettable experience.
