It’s one of Derby’s best-known live music venues and a real staple of the city’s alternative scene, with a packed calendar of gigs, club nights and tribute acts that keep the place buzzing.

For anyone who loves rock, indie, punk, metal or just a proper live music atmosphere, The Hairy Dog is hard to beat.
