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!
