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
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! Before Tiger King, before Grizzly Man, there was Roar: a crazed and misguided culmination of a Hollywood big cat breeding obsession that should never have been allowed. It’s the closest you’ll ever get to a safari snuff film, from megalomaniac furry (and director of The Exorcist) Noel Marshall in association with the cultural anarchists at Bristol Bad Film Club.
BBFC & The Cube presents ROAR at The Cube.
How can we reclaim what has been stolen? How can we remember what has been forgotten? Kamal Aljafari subverts Israel’s colonial campaign of historical and cultural erasure with a visceral and unsettling archival excavation - rewriting disappearing Palestinian memories into ‘the cinema of the dispossessed’.
A Fidai Film at The Cube.
The Cube’s Japanuary season dives into the absurd with anti-fascist tour de force 'Fighting Elegy', the first of a Seijun Suzuki double bill! Libidinal frustration becomes full-blown teenage warfare in this irreverent slapstick-cum-satire, laden with irreverent wit and masterful visuals.
Teens go off the rails in this characteristically bonkers film by Japan's master of excess.
