How Does it Work?
We operate on a simple monthly membership, giving you affordable access to our studios.
Because we're membership-based rather than pay-as-you-go, we can offer significantly better value than most traditional rehearsal studios.
Members receive up to 20 hours of studio time each week, with guaranteed access during peak periods (weekday evenings and weekends) as needed.
Our rehearsal rooms come fully equipped with premium amps, quality drum kits (including breakables), professional microphones and a full PA system. We also include high end stage pianos in every room.
Cabin memberships include a full drum kit with breakables, an 8-channel audio interface, a headphone amplifier and professional studio monitors.
Why choose a Blimp membership?
1. It's way cheaper than paying by the hour.
-
Blimp is like a gym membership, but for practice rooms. We apply the same logic as other subscription-based services, which makes the cost of practice way cheaper than paying by the hour.
-
Even for bands who practice just once a week, a Blimp membership is cheaper than almost all practice rooms that charge by the hour; and it gives you way more studio time to play with.
2. It's way more convenient.
-
At Blimp, you take control. You manage your own time via a Google calendar, and book and cancel slots as you need them.
-
Better yet, if you rehearse at the same times each week, you also have the option to lock in specific slots so that you ‘own’ them and they are kept available for your exclusive use each week.
3. It's way more flexible.
-
We get it. Even the most serious bands don’t usually play for 20 hours a week, and most of our members won’t use their full compliment of time every week.
-
But, if you’re ever about to go into the studio or head out on tour and and need to get tight; you can ramp up your practice hours accordingly.
-
And you have the option to pop in for solo sessions in between full rehearsals (particularly useful for drummers, horn players and other instrumentalists who need a soundproofed place to play).
4. It's way... better.
-
As a Blimp member, you’ll be playing on high-end equipment, in acoustically treated rooms.
-
You can also store your gear in our secure lockers for a small extra fee, so no more lugging heavy equipment across town.
-
You’ll also be a member of our supportive musical community, with the chance to share info on upcoming gigs and new releases in our community WhatsApp group.
