Venue & Accommodation
Planning to stay​
Bournemouth has plenty of great places to stay, all within easy reach of The Nici and the seafront.
From boutique hotels to classic seaside spots, you’ll find lots of options just a short walk, taxi, or stumble away from the party.
We recommend booking early, as September is a popular time on the coast.
