The Meteorite at Swingers West End

The Meteorite floor requires a minimum spend that varies by day and time. For example, Saturday daytime (12:00-17:00) costs £18,315 total including £16,650 minimum spend plus £1,665 service charge. Thursday evening private hire ranges from £25,000-32,100 depending on guest numbers and requirements.

Private hire includes exclusive use of the entire Meteorite floor with private entrance, 9-hole crazy golf course, all-weather terrace, cocktail bar, three street food vendors (including Patty&Bun), complimentary cloakroom, DJ from 18:00, and dedicated event planner. Golf spend, food spend, and drinks spend are separate mandatory minimums on top of any room hire fee.

The Meteorite floor can accommodate up to 900 guests for large events. For private hire events, typical bookings range from 50-300 guests depending on the setup and requirements.

Swingers receives high volume enquiries and cannot hold dates without payment. You must make an initial payment to secure your booking, and they advise moving quickly on preferred dates. No specific advance notice period is mentioned, but immediate payment is required to confirm availability.

A discretionary service charge is applied to all bookings, ranging from 10% to 12.5% depending on the event type and date. This is calculated on the total minimum spend and added to your final bill. For example, a £16,650 minimum spend would incur £1,665 in service charges at 10%.

The venue requires operational team approval for specific requirements that may involve external vendors. While DJs are provided from 18:00, bringing your own entertainment may need confirmation with the operations team before proposals can be sent.

Private events typically run until close (around midnight/00:00). Daytime events can start from 12:00, while evening events commonly begin at 17:30-18:00. The venue is usually 18+ only, except for special family packages on Sundays before 6pm with specific time slots.

Minimum spends are broken down into separate categories: Golf Spend (typically £837-4,000), Drinks Spend (£3,238-16,150), Food Spend (£1,025-4,100), and sometimes Room Hire Fees (£300-900). These amounts vary significantly based on day of week, time, and guest numbers, with weekend rates being substantially higher.

The venue can accommodate some flexibility in numbers, as seen with offers to reduce from 50 to 32 guests for certain packages. However, minimum spends are typically fixed regardless of final attendance, so you'll still need to meet the contracted food and beverage minimums even if fewer guests attend.

Swingers is usually an 18+ venue. Family packages are available but only on Sundays during specific time slots (11am-12:30pm, 12:30pm-2pm, 2pm-3:30pm, 3:30pm-5pm), and all under-18s must vacate before 6pm. Private events outside these times are adults-only.
