QPOC Jam

QPOC Jam at Exchange

A gig held at Exchange on Monday 31st March. The event starts at 19:30.


Come join us for another QPOC Jam at Exchange, a live music jam session created by and for Queer People of Colour in Bristol. This event was formed to provide Bristol's queer global majority community with a third space for musicians and non-musicians alike to enjoy live music as a tool for community and expression. It focuses on exploring music in non-secular ways, de-emphasising structure and formality, and more on connecting with sound in a way that resonates and feels empowering and fun.

Whether you're an experienced musician or have never picked up an instrument before, this is a great opportunity to collaborate, improvise, and mess around with different sounds, styles, and genres in a safe and welcoming space. Non-musicians feel free to come by to vibe and enjoy some great live music!

We'll provide the drums, bass, guitars, and mics, but feel free to bring your own instruments if you prefer.

Events are run roughly every month, see keep an eye out on Headfirst or the Bristol QPOC Socials Instagram.

Exchange has a small ramp entrance from the street. Our bar and main event space are on the ground floor with level access throughout and we have an accessible toilet. If you need any other info on accessibility, please contact [email protected]

Entry requirements: 14+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
