Rehearsal Rooms

Our rehearsal rooms are open to bands, solo artists and groups looking for a space to make music.

Affordable, accessible and independently run – designed with working musicians in mind.

Hourly Rooms

Need a spot to make noise? Our hourly rehearsal room is ideal for bands, duos or solo artists who want a high-quality space without the long-term commitment.

Fully soundproofed and kitted out, it's available to book by the hour from £12/hr.

Sponsored by our good friends at Marshall, the room comes equipped with Marshall amps and cabs – ready to plug in and play. Just bring your instruments and any extras you need.

Sessions start from one hour. Please factor in time for set-up and pack-down within your slot.

Permanent Rooms

Looking for a regular base? We offer a limited number of permanent rehearsal rooms for artists and bands who want their own lockable space, with 24/7 access (noise restrictions apply).

Each room comes with key-code entry to the building, your own room key, and limited on-site parking. Rooms can be shared — we just ask that one person is named as the lead booker.

Rates depend on room size and availability, to apply or join the waiting list, fill out the form or email hello@canalsideleeds.com.
