The Big PHAT Bristol Showcase at Exchange
See event details

A gig held at Exchange on Saturday 9th October. The event starts at 18:00.


PHAT Bristol are delighted to present a hand-picked selection of the finest upcoming artists around the city...

We've been having such a great time welcoming so many wonderful acts and artists through the doors at our weekly open mic at The Cloak & Dagger, that we've picked a few of our very favourites to play our first ever Big PHAT Bristol Showcase at The Exchange!

You'll be treated to some phenomenal acoustic singer-songwriters, mind-blowing jazz pianists, raucous Q-pop bangers and more...

We're launching this event to provide a pathway for upcoming artists to play at bigger venues, whilst thanking some of the artists who have dedicated their Wednesday evenings to entertaining our crowds, and also providing a visible pathway to larger events for the unsung heroes of the live music scene...the open mic'ers.

This event is Pay What You Feel, as we want it to be as accessible as possible for as many people as possible but any donations will be received with the warmest gratitude as they will help us to be able to continue providing a platform for marginalised and under-represented artists in the city and beyond.

We hope to see you there!

Exchange is a 14+ venue. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
