Billy Bootleggers Nottingham

Billy Bootleggers sits on Weekday Cross in Nottingham's Lace Market, a part of the city centre that's long been a hub for pubs and live music. It's an American-ish dive bar and live music venue that caters to all of your Moonshining and Picklebacking needs, and was previously known as Percy Picklebackers before the rebrand. The setting is a lively, American-inspired dive bar and live music venue in Nottingham's historic Lace Market, with reports putting the capacity at around 200 people.

Live bands are a big part of the offer here, with a strict over-18s policy in place, and the bar is free admission all nights with door staff enforcing a strict over-18s only policy. Musically it leans towards grassroots gigs, alternative club nights, with rock, indie, punk, blues and alternative acts in an intimate setting close to Nottingham city centre.

Alongside the live sets, Billy's runs a steady run of themed club nights through the week, covering 80s and 90s throwbacks, indie anthems and rock classics. Regulars can expect Thursday's indie night, Saturday sessions and a Sunday smash-hits session, plus seasonal specials like the Halloween emo party, all in a casual, late-opening setup that suits a proper night out in the Lace Market.
