"We are really sorry to be writing to let you know that we’ve taken the difficult decision to cancel all shows at our four PizzaExpress Live venues until Spring 2021.

Despite a successful trial re-opening at PizzaExpress Live in Holborn during October and working hard to implement extensive safety measures, we believe these precautions could become increasingly intrusive in our small, intimate Live venues - particularly if national restrictions increase as COVID cases rise nationally.

As a result, regrettably we are cancelling all shows at PizzaExpress Live in Holborn, the Pheasantry in Chelsea and the PizzaExpress Jazz Club in Soho until next spring. PizzaExpress Live in Birmingham has remained closed since lockdown, but we have big plans for reopening 2021.

We remain devoted to supporting live music, and will be sure to rearrange dates for the new year once the situation has improved.

This is the last decision we wanted to reach – we know the disappointment it will bring to our valued customers and the incredibly talented artists who were scheduled to play - but safety and caution must prevail.

Please keep in touch – we’ll be back and the shows will go on when we come out of hibernation.

All ticket holders will he contacted by our box office. "
