The Trinity Centre

The Trinity Centre

Converted church where community centre meets venue.


Set in a converted Grade II* listed former church in East Bristol, the Trinity Centre has been a key part of Bristol’s thriving music scene since the 1970s.

Trinity has hosted many of Bristol’s major musical movements, such as dub, ska, jungle, and the Bristol Sound, with renowned artists like Joy Division, The Specials, Prodigy, and Public Enemy gracing its stage.

Trinity has remained one of Bristol’s last independent venues, keeping true to its heritage as a soundsystem venue by hosting local regulars such as Teachings in Dub, Sofa Sound and Timedance, as well as platforming the best local talent from the city alongside regular live music, theatre, dance, and community events.

Since 2004, Trinity has been a successful multi-arts venue and community arts centre, with a mission to empower the local community with the arts and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to access and shape arts and culture in Bristol through outreach programmes, workshops and regular classes.

The biggest bank holiday bruk-out since the 2nd summer of love. Lockmars is large and in charge here, inviting the daddy of 21st century junglist hardcore and rave revivalism - the one and only Sully - grafting 140-grade bass onto rolling amens and stuttering footwork stylings. Plus bubbling UK bass / Rinse FM sparring partners IZCO + Tottenham soundbwoi Reek0. LOCKMARS: BANK HOLIDAY DAY PARTY at The Trinity Centre.

The mighty Mungo’s return to TiD, stringing up their Scottish sound for an outdoor day session with ragga mic chat legend Solo Banton. Topped by a rare Bristol outing from Reading’s Classic Wonder Veterans with their fierce dubplate selects and dancehall remedies - spines will most definitely rumble for this one! Day Party at The Trinity Centre.

Sell out warning! Trinity is Burning! Pure drag pageantry / Ballroom vibes with open-to-all categories centring QTIBIPOC performers. Walk the walk for the trophy, or just bask in face, shape, sass and realness from the audience. FRUITEA at The Trinity Centre.
