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
Inzane bassweight gathering from all corners of the realm – Italy, Mexico, Venezuela, France and Bristol – coming together in a dubwise fellowship of sub-shaking proportions. Two UK debuts inside: Mysticwood’s Year 4000 steppas destruction and rootically minded 140 weapons, running red hot thru Bass Revelation’s six-scoop stack (carted all the way from Spain). The future is written in the shadows of The Dub Cave!
THE DUB CAVE at Loco Klub.
Another Satellite of Love literary communion beneath the Loco arches! This month they host award-winning spoken word artist Desree, whose close-focus storytelling of sacrifice, identity and belonging in Black British life has carried her from Glastonbury residencies all the way to the Royal Albert Hall. Plus local support, a community poem and plenty of space for new voices – grab a mic slot while you can.
Satellite of Love Presents: Desree at Loco Klub.
Widow’s Rock n Rollium’s alt-cabaret joins forces with Bristol queer rock royalty Punka in a sweat-soaked variety show spanning drag, cosplay, circus and… emo ballet??? Soundtracked with live riot grrrl covers from the Punka house band and steered by the iron grip of burlesque domme Frances Widow, there’ll be enough latex-clad sideshow carnage happening here to short-circuit the Loco Klub grid… brace yrselves!
Circus, Sideshow, Burlesque cabaret performed to a LIVE Rock Band
Deconstructed UK club shellers land beneath Temple Meads, powered by the unrelenting NHZ system. Jay Carder steers through precision-tooled dance mechanics, DJ Sprinter locks into super slick breakbeats, while Delian Sounds twists dubstep into razor-sharp dubwise mutations. Serious!
Jay Carder, DJ Sprinter, Delian Sound B2B Darz (Percy Digs), Rose Holland, and Tuff Breaks Residents all powered by the formidable NHZ Soundsyste
Float from chest-rattling bass to snake-charming breaks in this two tunnel, quadruple system Loco takeover. In the dub corner: Bristol’s mighty metal-crusted Chewing Glass operators running heavyweight subwise selections beneath Aloka’s vocal vibrations. Representing all junglists: Sierpinski’s god-level amens and Humb’s ragga-infused stylings bring the top-shelf old skool / new skool energy.
Dub Vs Jungle! Heavyweight pressure, crucial selections and good vibes from start to finish!
