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
Petrolhead hardcore wrestles with proggy thrash all in the name of an interdimensional Jesus? Skin Failure’s rabid sci-fi crossover shredding is just shit loads of fun; Blowout do the right thing for support (as always), with Benzo Queen’s unhinged synthcore tantrums and Screaming Doll’s gruff’n’groovy desert grunge. Face-melter FFO: Municipal Waste, Every Time I Die, Wasted Death, Petbrick.
Skin Failure at The Croft.
Monday metal madness of the cosmic death variety. If it’s horrific enough for Profound Lore, we’ll more than slam to it. Warp Chamber are a sci-fi horrorshow of psychotic rhythmical violence, impossibly technical not-of-this-world shredistation, and alien phlegm growled forth from Satan’s pits. Depraved music to start your week wrong FFO: Blood Incantation, Timeghoul, Suffocation, Tomb Mold, Morbid Angel.
Warp Chamber at The Croft.
Sell out warning! Support your local swamplords on their one-band journey through the tangled terrains of amphibious-sludge-doom and folk horror sci-fi worldbuilding. Masked psych-metal fantasy theatrics in a league of their own FFO: Electric Wizard, Devil's Witches, Acid King, Conan.
Froglord at The Croft.
Blowout brings Don’t Try back from the Quebec hinterlands after a truly punishing ‘24 session of crossover hxc belligerence. Ferocious, red-lining, pit-brewing anthems that’re gone in a minute but echo down your earholes for hours, with hometown chainpunk heroes Perp Walk on support. This is vital venom FFO: Cancer Bats, Turnstile, Norma Jean, Hatebreed, Denim & Leather.
Blowout Presents Don't Try, Perp Walk, Goram and [Brick] at The Croft, Bristol
Cirrina Sessions have been serving the crème de la crème these past few months with killer psych-dub meditations and shape-shifting rhythms on lock. Stepping up next: Severine delivers idiosyncratic club futurism, fresh from tearing up the d-floor before the almighty Tim Reaper in their classically turbo-charged style. Buckle up!
Cirrina Sessions bring their signature warped, hypnotic and disjointed techno to The Croft with local legend to be severine.
