deposit paid – only then will High Societhé confirm that the reservation has been accepted and your choice
secure date and time.

All parts last a maximum of 2 hours unless previously agreed with the High Society
Our minimum requirement for all party bookings is 10 people charged at the prevailing rate per head
load;
We have tight start and end times for all games because we often run multiple games throughout
the day. We allow for a grace period of 15 minutes before the party starts and 15 minutes after arrival
time however any parties that exceed by more than 15 minutes will incur a fee of 15 euros per
15 minutes.
