Private Hire
The Leas Cliff Hall can also be hired out for private events and people can also choose to be married here if they wish.
Hospitality Suite
There is a hospitality suite that visitors can take advantage of either before of after a show. Personally I have never used this service so am unable to comment on it too much but I know that you can order drinks and pick food from a selection of menus ranging from finger foods, buffets and three course meals.
Shows

...Bempton Cliffs can be found on the east coast of Yorkshire just outside the small village of Bempton, which is off the Bridlington to Flamborough road. This whole area is now a nature reserve that is owned and managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB).
There can be few people that have been here that can deny that Bempton Cliffs are a spectacular sight.
