Sawmills
Catch-it-while-you-can multi-warehouse space in St Jude’s
Set in a disused timber yard and sawmill on Eugene Street, Bristol’s newest independent space is a sprawling temporary venue from the brains behind The Jam Jar and The Underground.
The grand-scale industrial space is made up of nine interlinked warehouses and open-air courtyards, with a combined max capacity of 4000. It’s designed for day parties, festivals, gigs and club nights, with Keep Hush, Moon Fest and Alfresco Disco some of the first promoters to book in parties.
There is level access into the venue but some bumpy terrain. An accessible toilet is available and free PA tickets can be provided on request.
