Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 24 Oct, 07:09 · Archive

The Arena at Beach Street in Felixstowe will keep its licence after a resident withdrew a complaint about noise from DJ events.

A resident's application to East Suffolk Council to review the premises licence for the Arena at Beach Street in Sea Road, Felixstowe has been withdrawn. All parties have reached agreement that a hearing is no longer necessary, and the council licensing sub-committee has been cancelled. The venue's licence will continue as it is, with no enforcement action to follow.

The review was prompted by complaints about noise from Beach Street, including music and DJ events at the Arena/Shed section of the site. Residents in Langer Road, Platters Road and Micklegate Road reported noise, with some describing it as 'horrendous', particularly during DJ events.

Owner Charlie Manning said: 'We're relieved that the resident has withdrawn his application and complaint - so the show goes on. We want Beach Street to thrive in harmony with our neighbours, bringing people together and supporting local businesses.'
