Location

Nova is held in the Budleigh Salterton Public Hall which is quite near Exmouth and a half an hour drive from Exeter.

The Public Hall has been the home of NOVA and Sundown since 2005.

The main hall contains capacity for 100 sceners. We will be equipping the hall with tables, chairs, lighting, Full HD projection and a suitably large sound system for the party. There is also a bar, catering facilities, backstage areas and disabled access.

Within walking distance you will find a supermarket, pubs, shops and restaurants —the local Fish & Chip shop being a traditional favourite.
