FAQ’s
-
We advise that you visit the building before booking an event so you can see the space and meet the team, it’s also a great time to ask any questions about set-up.
After confirming the date and time with our Community Team, either in person, by phone or email, you'll promptly receive confirmation via our booking system, Fresha. To secure your booking, a 30% deposit is required with the remaining balance payable on the day of hire.
You will then be asked to provide relevant insurance documents and provide any information that will help the team to prepare for your visit. If you require a Licence for the activities you are carrying out you will need to contact Glasgow City Council as we're unable to initiate contact on your behalf but we can provide information.
-
Yes, a 30% deposit must be paid upon booking to secure the rental and our booking system will hold your card details.
The remaining balance must be paid on the day of the booking, we can charge the remainder to your card on the day but will confirm this with you first.
-
Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. This policy is in place to accommodate the admin involved in processing room bookings.
-
Absolutely, you can do either but the deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.
If you cancel your booking we will retain your deposit. If you have already paid the full amount this will be refunded to you minus the deposit.
If you reschedule your booking we will retain your deposit and re-charge another. If you have already paid the full amount this can be transferred over but we will need to take another deposit to hold that date.
-
House of NAF! are not responsible for providing clients or attendees for any services, events, workshops or masterclasses hosted in our space, but we will share the event with our network of residents, clients and customers.
We'll feature your event on our website's 'What's On' section and may share it on our social media stories and roundups, but we can't promise to drum up extra buzz or guarantee ticket sales. Our space tends to work best for businesses that already have a solid customer/client base or guest list for this reason.
It’s important to note that we don't have much passing trade and our clients typically have set appointments, so if you're looking to build your clientele through our footfall or social media platforms this may not be the ideal venue for you.

Insurance Documents
We do not hold a premises licence to serve alcohol so you will need to apply for an Occasional Licence to serve alcohol at your event.
Occasional Licence
-
If there is any monetary transaction associated with the event then Licensing laws require an Alcohol Licence.
✶ Free event & free drinks with no retail activity → No licence needed
✶ Free event & free drinks with retail activity, i.e pop-up shop → Occasional Licence
✶ Ticketed event with nibbles & alcoholic drinks → Occasional Licence
✶ Ticketed event that includes a free drink → Occasional Licence
✶ BYOB → No licence needed
An Occasional Licence costs £10 and needs to be done no less than 4 weeks before the event
The Snug has been cleared by Environmental Health but we are unable to hold a licence due to Glasgow City Council (GCC) regulations. A personal skin piercing & tattooing licence won’t extend to our premises and everyone has to apply for their own licence for House of NAF! specifically, even if you have one elsewhere.
This process can take 6 weeks so bear that in mind when booking & announcing your first day with us, as you will have to reschedule & may lose your deposit if you haven’t been approved. This process will only need to be done once before your first day with us and then you can be as flexible as you like after that.

While we've made efforts to improve and continue to strive for enhanced accessibility, significant changes to the building are not feasible, and our current facilities may not meet all needs.
Please be aware that the Studio and Snug are situated on the top floor, so when booking rooms, kindly consider guests with accessibility requirements.
