99 Regent Street (Formerly Cuckoo Club) Private Hire and Events

Private hire at 99 Regent Street (formerly Cuckoo Club) means booking part or all of a two-floor Mayfair club for your own event: a section of one room, one of the two floors of about 200 guests each, or the whole venue. It suits corporate nights, client entertaining, birthdays and launches. The club opens Wednesday to Saturday, 11pm to 4am, as of October 2026, and other nights or exclusive hire are on request. Minimums, the capacity for exclusive use and the terms are quoted by the venue for your date, and we arrange the enquiry at no cost to you.

Three Ways to Hire 99 Regent Street

The club can be booked at three sizes, depending on your numbers and how much of the night you want to be yours.

Format What your group gets Suits Terms
A section A reserved area of one room, with the club open as usual around it Birthdays, team nights, client hosting On request
A floor One of the two rooms, each holding about 200 Corporate nights, larger birthdays, launches On request
The whole venue Both floors, for exclusive use Company parties, brand launches Capacity and terms on request

A section is the lightest form of private hire. Your group has its own space within one of the rooms while the rest of the club runs a normal night, so you get the energy of a full room without your guests being scattered across it.

A floor gives your guests one of the two rooms, each holding about 200. The next section covers which floor suits which event.

The whole venue takes both floors, and the staircase between them, for your event alone. The capacity for exclusive use, the hours and the terms are set by the venue for each event, so we ask for them against your date rather than quote a number that may not apply.

Which Floor Suits Which Event

The club has dark panelling, warm low lighting, banquette seating and a long bar, with a staircase between the two floors. What separates the floors is the music and how each room is used.

Upstairs is the natural base for client entertaining and corporate nights. It is the main room, where most tables sit, and open-format hip hop and RnB suits a mixed crowd of colleagues or guests.

Downstairs suits a team party or a birthday where dancing is the point: it plays house and is darker and more dance-focused.

The whole venue is the answer when one floor is not enough for your guest list, or when you want both sounds under one roof.

Corporate Nights, Birthdays and Launches

Corporate nights. A floor gives a company its own room on a club night, and the whole venue suits a larger company party. Two practical points before invitations go out. First, the door policy is 19+ with physical photo ID, a year older than most London doors, which matters if your team includes younger staff. Second, if the company is paying for its annual party, HMRC's rules on staff parties can make it exempt from tax and reporting when it is annual, open to all employees and within a set cost per head, so check the venue's quote against that limit.

Client entertaining. A section or reserved tables upstairs keeps your guests together in the main room, rather than spread across a busy club.

Birthdays. A section suits a birthday that is too big for one table and too small to fill a floor. For a smaller group, a table booking is usually the simpler route, and it is covered below.

Launches. A floor or the whole venue, with the timings and anything you want to change about the room, from the music to branding, put to the venue as part of the enquiry.

Nights, Hours and Getting There

99 Regent Street opens on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, from 11pm to 4am. Both floors run on Friday and Saturday; one floor opens on Wednesday and Thursday.

A section works on any open night. For a floor or the whole venue on a Friday or Saturday, when both floors run, ask as early as you can. Other nights, earlier starts and exclusive hire outside the normal schedule are on request: we put the question to the venue with your date and come back with what is possible.

Guests enter on Swallow Street, through the entrance the Cuckoo Club used; Time Out's listing for the old club gives the same Swallow Street address, W1B 4EZ. Piccadilly Circus is two minutes away, and Oxford Circus and Green Park are both walkable.

Minimums, Capacity and Terms

Private hire at 99 Regent Street is quoted per event. The minimum spend or hire terms, the capacity for exclusive use, the hours, and the deposit and cancellation terms are all on request, because they depend on the night, the format and your numbers. We ask for all of them at once, so you can compare options like for like before you commit.

For reference only: a normal-night table starts from £600 minimum spend, which is spent on drinks rather than charged on top and covers entry for the whole group. That is a table on an ordinary club night, not a hire price.

Membership exists at the venue, but its terms are not published. You do not need it to book through us: we book tables and guestlist for non-members, and private hire enquiries come through us too.

What to Send Us

The sooner the venue has the full picture, the sooner you have real terms. Send:

  • The date, plus a second choice if you have one.
  • Your numbers: how many guests you expect.
  • Your budget, as a total or per head.
  • The occasion: a corporate night, client event, birthday or launch.
  • Anything specific: the start time, which floor or sound you want, whether you need a section, a floor or the whole venue, and any branding.

Table Booking or Private Hire

A table booking is a reserved table on a normal club night, sharing the room with the usual crowd: entry is covered for everyone and the minimum spend starts from £600. Our guide to 99 Regent Street table prices explains how that minimum works, and tables are booked through our 99 Regent Street table page.

Private hire gives your group space of its own, whether a section, a floor or the venue, on terms quoted for the event. As a rule of thumb, if your group fits around a table or two and is happy to share the room, book tables; if you want the space to be yours, ask about hire.

For a smaller mixed group that only needs to get in, the 99 Regent Street guestlist takes mixed groups by request, with entry free to about £50 depending on the night and arrival time. For December parties, our Mayfair Christmas party guide compares tables and private hire across the clubs we book.
