Pre-Arrival Checks
Good to know before your session
Unsure what you need to prepare ahead of your Pirate visit? Take a look at the bullet point checklist below to ensure you have everything you need for a great session:
- You’ll need to bring your own drumsticks.
- All of our drum kits include stands, kick pedal and a snare. Please note, in the UK & IE Rehearsal Standard and Standard+ studios don't come equipped with cymbals, but you're welcome to bring your own or upgrade to a Rehearsal Pro.
- Need extra stands? Message us when you arrive and we can help you get access to spares.

You can contact us via WhatsApp or live chat any time of day (simply tap the speech bubble in the corner of your device).
