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.

Our recent recommendations for The Trinity Centre
Sell out warning! Like a delightfully broken Ben Webster, Alabaster dePlume's fragile, breathy saxophone playing is as immediately captivating as it is extraordinary. Expect delicate solo work, warm ensemble and spoken word in turmoil from the Mancunian's bitter tongue
Alabaster DePlume at The Trinity Centre.
Sell out warning! A blessing from the Bronx, Mike’s dream-infested rap collages haunt the world - beaming chopped ambiance, broken-jazz memories and introspective baritone flow to lost phones, sleepless nights and aching souls. Sentimental and otherworldly, Mike’s seat in the future towers of hip-hop is secure. Unswervable FFO: Quelle Chris, Earl Sweatshirt, billy woods, Madvillain, Navy Blue, Knxwledge.

Sell out warning! The Deep Medi titan’s journeyed from Cuba to Peru and finally found the formula to total bassweight alchemy at home with Brownswood jazz sensation Joe Armon Jones. Come witness this next evolution - a full live band shelling Sinai with rattlings of dark DMZ sub and washes of euphoric chords. Is this our generation’s Mad Professor x Massive Attack? YUP.

Sell out warning! So you’ve been blessed by the vanguards of dub before, but now their full live show returns for the first time since their 90s Kitachi reign. Mark Iration nicing up the mic, Dennis Rootical rocking the bass and OBF punishing the desk - this is surely steppas history in the making…..none shall pass!
Teachings in Dub 17 at The Trinity Centre.
Sell out warning! The heaviest weekend of dub all year!? It’s THE annual TiD birthday roadblock and if we need to introduce you to Aba Shanti-i or Dubkasm at this point, you’ve been seriously neglecting life’s great Teachings. Inside’s a real treat for the heads, two overlooked titans of 90s steppas - Nomadix and Jonah Dan - rarely sighted on Sinai-sized rigs in Bristol waters. Prepare for righteous bass fulfilment.
