The Lantern
Excellent live music venue in Bristol Beacon.
Bristol Beacon's second events space is a 500 capacity, all-standing concert hall. The smaller capacity allows the venue to book more alternative and less established musicians than its larger counterpart. As a result The Lantern's programming is carefully thought-out and extremely varied. Events are booked for almost every night of the week, and tickets for shows are typically £10-20.

Sell out warning! Like your favourite Madlib cuts come to life, Surprise Chef feel like you're trailing the most epic crate digging session ever. Marrying 70s funkxploitation grooves with instrumental stoner soul and dusky boombap kicks, they’re flooding the global consciousness with classic fills beamed from another era. Highly unmissable FFO: Khruangbin, 30/70, David Axelrod, Dilla, BadBadNotGood.
