The ten-year deal will see Kudos maintain the venue’s seven bars and provide catering services for the Theatre Royal and Royal Concert Hall event spaces.

Kudos is currently considering plans to invest around £150,000 revamping the on-site restaurant, improving the Green Room Café Bar and investing in equipment that will help boost productivity.

The venue attracts major touring dramas, opera, comedy shows and West End musicals and can accommodate up to 1,186 guests in the restored Victorian Theatre Royal or 2,499 in the contemporary, air-conditioned Royal Concert Hall.

"We are delighted to be entering into this partnership with Kudos Hospitality, combining its expertise in delivering quality catering with the Royal Centre's expertise in providing top-quality arts and entertainment. It is a very positive public and private sector partnership," said Royal Centre Nottingham managing director Robert Sanderson.
