Rates and Discounts

Our rates vary depending on the times of the booking

• Bookings within our standard business hours (9am-5pm on weekdays) are charged at a lower rate than bookings over evenings and weekends.
• If a booking begins during business hours and extends into the evening, the hours before 5pm will be charged at the daytime rate, and the remaining time charged at evening rate.
• We may offer a discounted community rate to ordinary members of The Pyramid at Anderston, local charities and non-profits, and to events that are open to the public and which benefit our local community.
• We charge a higher Film & TV rate for filming and recording hires which require us to close the building to ensure quiet on set. Prep and strike times for these bookings are charged at 50% of the full Film & TV rate.
• We offer a 15% overall discount on space hire costs for events that are over 3 or more days, either consecutively or for block bookings (e.g. once a week for 4 weeks).

All rates and discounts are at the discretion of the events team at the Pyramid.

Additional Staffing Costs

What the pyramid offers in terms of set up, facilities hire, extra staffing, technical support, catering or cleaning will be made explicit in writing before the event, and will not be able to be changed without advance notice.

Deposits

For bookings under £500 the full payment is required to secure the booking. For bookings over £500, a 20% deposit is required to secure the booking, with the full payment expected two weeks prior to or before the event, whichever occurs first.

A cleaning deposit will be required for events with higher potential for mess, e.g. events where food will be served. The cleaning deposit is £60 for all halls and £40 for all rooms. This is to be paid in cash on the day of the event.

Cancellation Terms

If you wish to cancel completely, please contact us as soon as you can. Our usual policy is to charge a percentage of the booking fee for a cancellation depending on the notice given. 48 hours or less = 100% of fee,48 hours to 7 days = 50% of booking fee, 7 – 14 days = deposit or Admin fees. Please note that deposits are non-returnable.

VAT

The Pyramid at Anderston is VAT registered, meaning by law we charge 20% VAT on all hires including add-ons. Our prices lists do not include VAT – we give all customers clear information on full price breakdowns and then VAT is added onto the final quote.
