The best thing in Bristol on a Tuesday. Open decks, networking, clubnight in one venue.

When: Tuesday 2 June 2026, 8pm til 1am

Where: After Dark, Bristol BS1 1EL

What it is: OFFLINE STATE is a recurring Tuesday open-decks club night at After Dark and other venues. No bookings. No headliners. No lineup announced in advance except for special guests. Anyone can play, anyone can come.

Last session, the deck signup filled in 30 minutes and the room stayed busy until close. Everyone left asking when the next one was. This is the next one.

How it works:

Doors at 8pm. Sign up for a deck slot when you arrive. 20 minute sets, first come first serve. Bring a USB to play, go back to back with strangers, hear producers showing off new tracks before they’re out. Find your collective, start one, or just dance.

This session’s sound: Techno. Electro. IDM. Experimental. Trance. Disco house.

Every session features different genres and welcomes different collectives. No two sessions sound the same.

The venue:

After Dark is a beautiful new venue in Bristol city centre. Multiple rooms, places to dance and to sit and chat. Premium bar with fair prices. Intimate lighting throughout. Capacity 180.
