Frog Lane event space

Events space frog lane

The Frog Lane temporary events space is located on the site of the former Birmingham Road multi-storey car park, and is accessed from the bus station or Frog Lane (next to the Lichfield Garrick).

The events space features two lawned areas with perimeter banks on one area, offering a great place to sit. It also features a central hard standing area, with statuesque tree planters, and is perfect for outdoor eating events, performances and more. 

The site can be accessed through a gate from Frog Lane with vehicles.

Our prices include advice and guidance from staff experienced in holding events, ensuring your event is safe and well managed.

  • Discounts are offered using a discount calculator to event organisers of larger scale events. 
  • Hire fees are charged for part or all of a full day. 
  • Set up and take down fees are charged where set-up is required before or after the day of the event.
  • If you only require a shorter period, we may consider a reduced fee, depending on other expressions of interest. Please contact the LWMTS events team to discuss.

Please note:

  • The width of the gate into the space is 3.8m and there is a tight turning circle. At times this could be restricted by Lichfield Garrick activity, as they have an agreement to be able to utilise the road space for HGVs for larger productions. As such liaison with the Lichfield Garrick will be necessary to ensure the access space is free. 
  • There are underground services that may impact vehicle movements across the site - we will discuss these at time of booking enquiry based on the activity event organisers wish to deliver.
  • Due to underground services we cannot permit any lengthy stakes to be driven into the ground - we will discuss this at time of booking enquiry based on the activity event organisers wish to deliver.
  • Event organisers can move the planters, but this is at the event organiser's own costs and specialist machinery will be required to limit damage to trees/hard landscaping. Event organisers will need to provide a suitable risk assessment, safety plans and be insured to deliver this activity. Event organisers will be responsible for meeting all costs associated with safely moving the trees from and back to the current positions and the costs of any damage caused through the movement to either planter or plants/trees. 
  • Weight of the tree planters - 7 tonne, including topsoil, gravel, trees and planter.
  • Nearest electrical point is the ex Debenhams site or the retail units - organisers will need to seek permission for use. 
  • All events will need to be mindful of the noise levels they produce as the site is located in a residential area, and next to the Lichfield Garrick.
