Our Venue

Studio Space

Our venue is a repurposed TV studio transformed into a state-of-the-art arena space accommodating audience numbers of up to 850

In a strive to establish our status as the best, most technologically advanced music arena in East Anglia; the studio offers unrivalled lighting and sound facilities to cater for a diverse roster of events. Boasting a £1m sound and lighting apparatus, including world acclaimed Martin Audio MLA sound system and an Avolites Diamond 9 lighting desk, there is no gig experience like this outside of London. Epic is firmly-focused on pioneering spotless, crystal clear audio and dazzling optical displays that impress audiences and artists alike.

The studio space is fully customisable and can adapt to every event’s needs. Including a full standing or seated crowd in theatre style or tables and chairs, reduced size intimate gig spaces, lecture hall style or arena sports including boxing, darts, wrestling and more. It is the only venue in the area with this amount of customisation.

Running alongside the studio is Norwich’s longest bar, having it in the studio means guests can access drinks without leaving the atmosphere of the room. Our bar team can also provide table service during events that require it.

Sound System

We are one of only four venues in the UK with a permanent installation of Martin Audio’s revered MLA PA system; offering exceptional sound coverage, consistency & control through a combination of deftly-crafted acoustic designs and prediction & optimisation software of pin-point accuracy

The Multi-cellular Loudspeaker Array, or ‘MLA’ as it’s commonly abbreviated, is Martin Audio’s celebrated flagship technology having revolutionised sonic performance amongst high-end loudspeaker systems in their category. Key benefits include:

• Crisp, flawless sound affirming the benchmark of audio technology
• Noise pollution reduction through precise venue mapping and sound containment
• Intelligent software allowing quick, optimised setup arrangements for any venue layout
• Impeccable blanket sound quality across the entirety of an audience space

MLA technology allows the audience to be united as the same sound quality and volume are achieved throughout the defined area, from front-to-back and side-to-side. MLA celebrates proven success across a diverse belt of prestigious installations with a client base ranging from Glastonbury, Hyde Park and Alexandra Palace.

Lighting

Our concert-space is equipped with a state-of-the-art lighting rig that is configured to an endless array of setup layouts to suit large and small space gigs, theatre productions, sporting events and broadcast shows to enable a completely unique experience for clients and gig-goers at every event

Controlled through Avolites flagship console, the Diamond 9, the room layout is determined by the scale and format of the show and our lighting apparatus can be specifically laid out throughout the whole room to enable a truly immersive experience for any type of show.
