The Cube
Independent cinema which also hosts regular gigs and music.
The Cube is a real asset to Bristol, an independent cinema run by volunteers with original programming. In addition to films and live music the 105 seat cinema is also used for workshops and discussions.
In essence The Cube shows the films you actually want to see, avoiding pure 'arthouse' programming. Expect to find Hollywood's (occasional) decent offerings listed alongside quality foreign and independent films as well as a few cult classics. Wednesday mornings (11am) is BabyCinema where babies are welcome while Wednesday evenings is BlueScreen - a sort of open mic night but for short films.
While often folk or indie based, gig listings for The Cube can really vary. The level of crowd interaction at the Cube can make it a great venue to catch one off shows from electronica producers to experimental artists.

Our recent recommendations for The Cube
Sell out warning! A double dose of pedal-powered documentary at The Cube – riding through the mean streets of eastside LA with radical feminist bike crew Ovarian Psycos, then delving into the DIY drama of Divided’s two-wheel Rocky Mountain racing challenge. Plus Q&A with Bristol’s one-time “bicycle mayor” Leah DeHaan and triathlon campaigner Emma Drury.
Ovarian Psycos + Divided at The Cube.
Sell out warning! The original headhunters Front242 may have hung up their mirrorshades, but Bristol’s bagged the UK premiere of the first sanctioned EBM doc. Distilling the sweat and the sex behind the punk pulsations of Wax Trax, DAF, Nitzer Ebb and more with industrial dance bangers in the bar courtesy of Throb. Sit back, and let your body learn!
Electronic Body Movie film screening + THROB.3.5 at The Cube.
Last year the Cube’s Party Girls secured our devotion through their off-kilter cinema celebrations (and the unforgettable image of James Spader rubbing an old sandwich on his face in carnal ecstasy - iykyk). Now they’re reawakening your inner Beavis and Butt-Head with an MTV-themed nostalgiafest of live cabaret + a showcase of music video greats. Audience participation highly encouraged!!!
MTV My Super Sweet Music Video Night at The Cube.
A fresh bout of LL experimental euphoria: ft legendary London scrap-mangling extemporists The Bohman Brothers, baffling industrial electronica/funk carioca crossovers from Shit Creek & Monika Badly, avant-garde fingerstyle instrumentals from Danny Riley, and label residents Carnivorous Plants’ signature distortionscapes.
Liquid Library Presents.. at The Cube.
Sell out warning! Lynch’s finest! Surreal melodrama and neo-noir fairytale unite in a disorienting sensory overload of severed ears, mechanical robins, and (of course) blood-red curtains - as baby-faced amateur sleuth Kyle McLachlan tumbles down the rabbit hole into the underbelly of American suburbia.
Blue Velvet 7.30pm at The Cube.
