Last Friday Cobden Chambers hosted a fantastic evening of fine wine, cheese and French cinema. I think it’s fair to say that a little Parisian je ne ce quoi was captured in the centre of Nottingham…
Origin One Music Video
Last May we were privileged to be used as the location for the band Origin One to film a music video.
It was a fantastic day, with great food from Becky’s Global Kitchen, great music from the band, and great vibes from everyone there!
And here’s the video…

Cobden Chambers in the Press
After all of the hard work that went into the refurbishment and redevelopment of Cobden Chambers, and the tireless efforts of the residents to make it an inviting, interesting place to visit, we are so pleased that people really seem to be enjoying the space, and talking about it!
We’ve so far had mentions in Nottinghamshire Today, Left Lion, Experience Nottinghamshire and many more; we’ve even been on Notts TV!
What we love most, is when we are championed by independent bloggers, who have stumbled upon our little part of Nottingham, and fallen in love with it. Bloggers such as http://www.wearthefrocks.blogspot.co.uk/ (whose wonderful pictures are featured here) are using the space just as we had hoped, making it their own and interacting with it.
More of this please!

It looks set to be a thoroughly glamorous affair indeed!
A Hackathon with a difference – Saturday 7th June
This Saturday we’re hosting something a little bit different in The Courtyard.
Cobden Chambers residents Wiseman Designs have set up a hackathon. I must admit, I am not entirely sure what a hackathon is, but I am sure that many of you will know exactly what it is. What I do know is that the briefs and categories were announced last Sunday, and teams and individuals registered to take part.
All this week they will have been beavering away, get their developments ready, and will have a few hours on Saturday to complete their entries on site.
Judging will then begin, and the awards presentation will commence at around 6pm.
For a more thorough explanation, please visit the website at http://www.wisemanhack.com/

Cobden Chambers Vintage Reclaimed Market Welcomes in Summer!
It looks as though summer is here, and we welcomed it in true style at Cobden Chambers!
This weekend saw the first Vintage Reclaimed Market, and what a roaring success it was! With over 1500 people through the gates over the weekend, it looks as though the best kept secret of Nottingham is making its way out.
But, with music, food, tea and vintage treasures galore, it’s no surprise that it went down a storm… and we can’t wait for next month!
