The Madhouse has its home in the lovely South Derbyshire village of Rosliston, nestled between Lichfield, Swadlincote and Burton-on-Trent. SatNav - DE12 8JW. We are not a folk club; not that there's anything wrong with that. What we do, is promote live acoustic music of any genre, as long as it's good!      

The Madhouse is the home of friendly people and legendary Marston's Pedigree - a fine beer that is served at Madhouse gigs. We encourage people to bring a picnic if they wish, 'quiet' food please, while the artists are on stage!

What we provide :- Great music with a friendly atmosphere! Licensed bar and informal tabled seating, set out in such a way that every seat can see the stage. But you choose - stand or sit!  There is easy access and proper facilities for our friends with wheelchairs. We have plenty of free parking at the hall, complete with boundless outside smoking facilities, for those between set, speed-smoking sessions! .We have a house PA rig with monitors.  

What you provide:- is your very good company and support.

We are known as "a good night out" and people have been known to give up an evening of ferret racing to be at a Madhouse gig! Don't tell me that people don't suffer for the sake of art! Come and see for yourself - it is a legendary experience!
