Alma has been granted a licence to serve alcohol and for live music performances from its site at the former United Reformed Church (URC) in Princes Street, near Elm Hill.
The new performance space hopes to offer a wide variety of cultural and wellbeing events, ranging from art exhibits, yoga, organ recitals and showcasing experimental sounds from city artists and beyond.
Following the decision, Levi de Belgeonne, a representative for Alma, said: “We’re delighted to hear the verdict and we look forward to bringing an exciting performing arts programme to such a historical area of Norwich in 2026.”

Planning permission to build a new cattery has been approved.
The Honeycombe Road cattery, at Dancing Bee Lodge near the Cherry Lane Salhouse Garden Centre, will include 28 runs, a reception and preparation area and facilities for staff.

A huge battery facility storing enough energy to power 400,000 homes for an hour will be built
The four-hectare complex , seen as a vital part of the UK’s net zero ambitions, will see 612 batteries, each three metres tall, installed on farmland near the village of Walpole, in the west of the county.
The proposed scheme, covering an area of up to eight football pitches, had already generated strong opposition in the surrounding area, but councillors overrode those objections to give permission for it to go ahead.
It followed advice from council officials that they should take its national benefits into account.
