Venue amazing, had a great day and night 💓💕💓💕

We arrived Saturday the 29th for the brunch dirty dancing v greece , show was good , but toilets wjere disgusting and no loo roll so obviously not been cleaned as only just opened .. did the upgrade on the brunch to include draught beer as where not wine or cocktail drinkers .. to be then told the carling cider thats advertised as being included wasn't actually included , so I said it states there carling cider he said the website hasnt been updated , absolutely disgusting so paid a extra £20 for draught upgrade to get nothing and have to purchase drinks anyway.. its clearly false advertisement and a way to get you to bye something they clearly dont offer .. the young junior manager was absolutely useless saying it doesnt state dark berry cider, so I clearly said OK fair enough I'll have 2 pints of the carling cider thats advertised as being included his reply I can't as we only do the dark fruits one .. im like do you hear yourself .. you advertise carling cider then say we dont do carling cider absolute shambles .. this alone has put me off returning

Shambolic from start to finish. Booked x4 tickets (on a table of x8)... arrived to find table only set up for x6 people (and x4 already seated so not enough room for us all)..... we were moved to a table with limited view only to be asked to move as other people were booked on the alternative table we were moved to...... then x3 males came on stage who were NOT the show we booked for (so no prior communication that the original show was cancelled and no announcement at the beginning of the night)..... poorly trained very slow bar staff and one very rude staff member

Jersey Beats on tour @ The Little Theatre (Leicester).
Absolutely brilliant, professional, fun and entertaining.. the vocals where fantastic, the costumes spot on, lighting & sound excellent, the compare was so funny he should have a show of his own!
I would recommend this show without a doubt, it will bring you happiness and laughter, what more could you ask for...
The Little Theatre as a host venue did a great job, friendly bar staff, nice comfortable seating and staff with smiles..
Can't wait to see them again, definitely worth your hard earned money..
RECOMMENDED 100%

Went to the Christmas show and was not disappointed, my friend booked it as her and hubby ad been before to a show and thought it was great. we saw lots of singing, dancing and comedy, it was brilliant, the only down side was the bar - no white wine and said to go to the other bar but that was app orders only and the app wasn't easy- we were table C28 and you had you put your table letter in a box then table number but it didnt work - we realised you put the letter in the first box then C28 in next box and we were able to order delicious and filling food and drinks with ease although the cocktails started coming in smaller glasses as time went on - i don't think they were washing them quick enough - it wasn't a con as they were strong. we would definitely go again, just my level of campness with great music, very talented singers.

I booked SIX tickets for the Soul and Motown show on the 3 October, I traveled up from London with my terminally ill mother as this was her ‘last’ holiday. The tickets said the show started at 8.30pm. We even got a reminder email informing us that the show started at 8.30pm. When we arrived at Viva, we were told that we had missed the first half of the show as it started at 7.30pm. The person on the door told us to complain to the agent. Well I have sent three emails and no reply. The show itself was good but we only got to see half of it. Deeply deeply disappointed, this is false advertising and no one is replying to my emails.

My review is for the shows only.

I attended Jersey beats for the first time on 21st August 2025, Rewind Decades on 20th September and Broadway on 21st September. Now the music they play are really not my cup of tea but they have such talented singers to the point makes you start nodding your head and start singing to the songs you know irrespective of if you like them or not. That was me. Liked none of them but found myself singing to them. I did thoroughly enjoy 1 song. During the Broadway show, they played an amazing version of The Book Of Mormon's Hello. If it brilliant how they done it.

If you find yourself in Blackpool with nothing to do, attend here. You won't regret it. Even if you are like me and don't like there music, attend it anyway because you will enjoy yourself.

Absolutely disgusting the way it have been treated. Booked tickets for a show on 3rd Oct booked a hotel and food and drinks during the show. Today I was notified that the show has been cancelled and rescheduled for 29th December, this is not the first time I have seen this show been cancelled. I cannot make the rescheduled dates so I requested a refund as I am a 3 hour drive away. I was told I couldn't have a refund and only have a credit note!! What good is that to me, i booked this show as a birthday gift for my sister who really wanted to see these artists. Surely I have a right to a refund for services/goods i haven't received. I am out of pocket due to the hotel cost too. Really really unhappy and the customer service is just awful very rude.

Went on Wednesday 11th June for the Jersey Beats, not really knowing what to expect. It turned to be a fantastic night out, the best thing since the old Batley variety club. The compare/ comedian was really funny, something that is very difficult to find these days. The Jersey Beats were fantastic, explained the rise of Frankie Valley and the 4 seasons, they were funny and the music was top notch.
The booze prices are very reasonable, if ordered previously and the the food ( the Chinese box) was excellent, only criticism is some of the chips were a bit under cooked "shock" enough to put you off going, I think not. We will be back soon and with family and friends. Thank you for the best show we've seen in years and we go to Benidorm several times a year.

Omg where do I start, it's absolutely brilliant been 3 times already and already booked for more shows,Leye ,Kyle, Toby, Olivia and Michaela are fantastic has is all other staff, nice to go out and enjoy a night with no trouble

Superb from start to finish.....the complete package.
Funny, entertaining, great singing and performances.....Leah the host and owner is simply captivating.
My wife and I took our son William the weekend and at 21 years of age he said its the best show he has ever seen.....that says it all
For my wife and I who have been numerous time it was another superb show from all talented performers.

We booked viva for our works Christmas party 30th December 2024 for Assured Stays and Assured Clean.

We’ve never been before, the staff were extremely welcoming upon arrival and throughout the evening.

The pre ordered set menu was served promptly, no delays between courses and we thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The quality of the food was lovely, no complaints.

The show was very entertaining and enjoyable.

The venue was lovely and decorated very festively.

Overall the evening was a real delight. For the price we paid it certainly represented great value

All our group had great things to say about the evening.

Thanks for making our 2024 Christmas party very enjoyable

Had an amazing evening on our works Christmas party. Everything from the entertainment and food were amazing and nothing was too much trouble for the staff at the venue. Would definitely visit again.

My wife and myself decided to book up the Viva Blackpool REWIND SHOW on Wed 25th Sept 2024 and we opted for the Pre-set Show Dining (26.95 pp) which promised a memorable dinner and show experience.
Unfortunately it was memorable for all the wrong reasons.
When we arrived it appeared we were the only ones dining before the show, the vast majority of the table’s roundabout us were empty and they did not start to fill up until the show was just about to start at 19.45 hrs.
I would advise anybody going to a show at this venue to do the same, go and have a nice meal somewhere else and then just turn up for the show.
After our starters were eventually served we had to wait a long time until the empty plates were collected, there were no Viva staff available.
We then had to wait again for our main meal to be served and when it was the puff pastry/chips and peas were lukewarm, once again the Viva staff had disappeared and there was nobody available to speak to about this.
Again after waiting and as they were still no Viva staff available, I went to the kitchen area myself and asked if somebody could please collect our plates and serve our desserts as the show was just about to start.
So much time had been wasted by the disappearing Viva staff, that we were eating our desserts watching the show.
The standard of table service and food at this location is disgraceful and I would not recommend dining at this location (Viva) to anybody.
As I stated before...go and have a nice meal somewhere else, which will be better quality / value and then “if you must” just turn up for the show.
We were later informed that there was a party of 40 in Viva’s Round room? and they were getting preferential treatment & service, and the diners in the main hall were basically being ignored until the Viva Round room was served first.
So much for the Viva promise of... ( a delicious 3 course meal served to your table before the show commences)
I did submit a request for a dining refund, but that was like our night out at Viva, and has been totally IGNORED by the Viva management.

Well we arrived here for Paul Potts and it was a really personal night. Front of house, check in staff great so we decided to return for a non live night. Polite front of house, colleagues that brought drinks to our table were ‘nothing is too much trouble’. We will be returning and thank you
