The Boileroom is a music venue and cultural arts space in Guildford owned by The Boileroom CIC (previously 'The Boileroom Limited' until 2022[2])
The venue was founded in 2006[3] by its current director Dominique Fraser[4][2]. Who would later go on to win 'The H' at the Heavy Music awards in 2020[5].
In 2014 the venue faced scrutiny from its neighbours, citing a rise in antisocial behaviour from customers of the venue claiming that the venue had breached its licence in four key areas.[6]
The venue management started an online petition in response to the councils inquiry, which would be signed by notable public figures such as Ed Sheeran[6] (who had previously played at the venue[7]).
However, by September an agreement had been reached between the venue and local council,[8] such that the venue would now close its beer garden half an hour earlier.[6]
