Private Events

Catnap is be a great place to hold a private event or function - it doesn’t get much better than a venue with a whole lot of cute cats all to yourself!

The wellbeing of our cats remains our top priority, so we require that private events are calm and quiet so as not to overwhelm the cats. Our private events are only able to accomodate up to four children.

We take bookings for a variety of private events such as staff meetings or other small company events, social club hang outs and rest home groups. This can be during our normal opening hours or after hours by arrangement. You can also book out a private event such as one of our movie nights or board game nights.

Our event options and pricing guidelines are outlined below. Final pricing will be confirmed once we have all the details of your event.

The cat area must remain a calm, quiet environment for our cats at all times. Please bear this in mind when booking as some groups may not be suitable for an event at Catnap.
