Loco Klub
Cavernous club hosting experimental theatre in Bristol (as well as music)
Loco Klub's strong ties to local performance troupe the Invisible Circus make it a breeding ground for experimental/immersive theatre, cabaret, dance and music.
With help from Artspace Lifespace (the team behind the Island), this expansive subterranean space of Brunel-built railway arches has been restored to host gigs and live music in Bristol. As well as hosting Invisible Circus (responsible for some of the weirdest and most accomplished theatre in Bristol) - the space has attracted adaptations of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting, tunnel-grade techno from local promoters Room 237, and the launch event for Bristol's dedicated experimental band zine the Bristol Germ.
Loco Klub is a boundary pushing gig space in Bristol with history, atmosphere and magic in equal measures.

Our recent recommendations for Loco Klub
Riggy, where ya been grrrl? Growing that purple stack til it’s towering over ya! The iconic rotter rig returns for a rare solo outing, womping Loco into the dust with Off Me Nut rave nut Spongebob Squarewave slinging the silliest hardcore mash-ups, Amen4Tekno’s Keptek riding that diesel-powered speedbass, Theo-3’s repping bassline and jackin’ house + loads more. Air horns, edits, and meme mischief aplenty!
RIGGY STARDUST RETURNS at Loco Klub.
Sell-out warning! Club Love celebrates three years of queer-led chaos with a birthday edition packed full of immersive kink performance and the biggest dungeon in the South West! Expect live performances from Co Kendrah and Miss Terri-Boxx, and a dancefloor soundtrack by Holy C and fashion icon Darkwah. The theme is (literally) outrageous, so don your most gloriously overthought latex, lace, PVC and leather look.
The Satanic Telethon for the Dynasty of Filth
You had us at sock wrestling! PLU, Fagbutt, Popola and Soft Butch unite to throw this mega queer summer party, jam-packed with the full spectrum of dancefloor sizzlers spanning underground electro, camp pop bangers and Latin club… plus the grand toe-wriggling showdown. Truly the stuff of dreams <3
After a barren 2 years, Garden of Queerdom is back!
The poetry powerhouses over at Satellite of Love conjure up another inspired evening of linguistic gymnastics in the Loco Klub tunnels. Bristol Pride Poet Laureate Tom Denbigh reads subversive tales of climate change and queerness from his well-thumbed mental notebook, while Shiiku Collective’s Iman Sultan West performs rhythmic explorations of heritage, astounding in their lightness and depth.
Satellite of Love Poetry and Spoken Word run monthly events, workshops and writing retreats. Our monthly events at the Loco Klub offer a platform for local and touring poets, open mic and our Community Poem.
Fffwcio'r heddlu! 10 crews join hands to keep the free party spirit alive and kicking, raising cash for the South West teknival network after Welsh police seized an unruly amount of gear. Loco will rumble til 4am as you lose your mind in the maze of hard acid, tribe, trance, jungle and ‘ardkore, with stacks of community merch to lighten your wallet.
