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! Bristol Porn Festival digs into the raunchier end of the moving image, bringing together short films by queer artists and sex-workers from Bristol and beyond. Hosted by local filthmongers Maya Poison and Pixie Sin, with ceramic awards for the evening’s most salacious offerings hand-crafted by Bunny Royle. Leave your inhibitions at the door....
Bristol Porn Film Festival at The Cube.
At last! The enigmatic psych-folk sorceress and recent AD 93 alum makes her highly anticipated mark on Bristol. Dagmar drifts between raw musique concrète and gorgeous, haunted berceuses, layering phantom vocals with decaying Tascam distortion. Big one for fans of the daydreamer lulls of Joanne Robertson, Amateur Hour, Ignatz and Grouper.
Dagmar Zuniga + bonVILLE at The Cube.
Another beautifully skewed bill from the avant-garde experts @ QWAK: Suzan Peeters pulls the accordion into strange new territory, Augustė Vickunaitė unwires music concrète malfunctions, Jon Collin’s recites dusty folk-blues memoirs alongside Gris Maguerite’s haunting AV splices. There’s no support act here!
TICKETS ON THE DOOR Three exceptional international solo acts and an unmissable AV duo from Leeds.
The Cube's never-ending folk horror explorations take us deep down into the labyrinthine dungeons of Malpertius - a lurid masterpiece of erotic Belgian giallo ft. fresh-lipped sailors, Greek myth, family psycho-drama and a gloriously bed-ridden Orson Welles in a fresh 4k restoration.

Sell out warning! Sought-after NYC pianist Kelly Moran has lent her touch to everyone from FKA twigs and The Avalanches to Ryuichi Sakamoto and Yves Tumor. Now firmly at home on Warp, she conjures spellbinding modern classical and electronica with dazzling techgnostic finesse. Expansive, dreamlike pieces drifting somewhere between Caterina Barbieri, John Cage and Julianna Barwick… tip!
An evening of neo-classical, post rock, electronic and live visuals
