The Croft
The legendary home of outsider bands and Bristol's dubstep heyday!
A Stokes Croft icon (formerly The Croft, then Crofters Rights) returns thanks to Music Venue Properties' 'Save Our Venues' Campaign + the team behind The Mothers Ruin, The Colosseum, The Crown and the live programming brains behind Exchange.
The lovingly revamped Croft will hold 140 sweaty gig-goers with a focus on live music - as well as carefully curated clubnights.
The doors will burst wide open on 12 September after a successful fundraising campaign. You can expect 14 beers on tap from local suppliers, 7 days a week. We can't bloody wait!

Our recent recommendations for The Croft
UK emo revival standouts Mishikui hit the Croft with raw, reverb-drenched atmospherics – think MBV-style wall-of-sound moodiness meeting the muscular angst of Title Fight. This is full tilt catharsis FFO: Superheaven, Movements, Slow Crush, Nothing.
Mishikui at The Croft.
Sell out warning! Dirty South Beatdown dragged screaming from the Florida swamps! Two-Piece lash plenty of homegrown death metal brutalism to their hxc slam in a sound engineered for Croft-sized pits. A violent awakening FFO: Sunami, Outta Pocket, Chain Gang, Madball.
Two-Piece at The Croft.
Dim Wizard deliver radiant power-pop (led by ex-Spoonboy/Bad Moves legend David Combs) with geeky humour, cultural references, and positively gargantuan hooks. Expect bright, restless melodies on par with fellow indie-punk newschoolers like Ratboys, Superviolet, Jeff Rosenstock and Illuminati Hotties.
Dim Wizard, Cheerbleederz & Hamburger at The Croft.
Crossover thrash shred-istation! Doomsday rise triumphant from the potent Bay Area DNA pool as the dominant 2020s mutation, serving bludgeoning riffs with a vile side of hxc snot alongside local pulse-racers Overpower. Pizza-thrashers stay home, this is the real deal FFO: Municipal Waste, Slayer, Power Trip, Cro-Mags, Iron Age, Enforced.
Doomsday at The Croft.
Young and deadly metallic crossover brigade Negative Frame break down the walls of The Corft with their blistering barrage of deathcore stylings and hardcore beatdown. Monday feeding frenzy FFO: Suicidal Tendencies, DRAIN, Thy Art Is Murder, Jesus Piece.
