Set in the beautiful surroundings of Cotham Parish Church, we host welcoming, community-focused music nights featuring outstanding artists from Bristol and beyond. Whether you come to dance, discover new sounds, catch up with friends, or meet new people, you'll find a relaxed and friendly environment that makes everyone feel at home.
Our programme spans global music, folk, roots, jazz, reggae and more, bringing high-quality live performances to one of Bristol's most characterful venues. With affordable tickets, a simple bar, and gigs that finish by 10pm, Cotham Club offers a great night out without the late-night hassle.
We're proud to be rooted in our local community while welcoming music lovers from across the city. More than just a gig, Cotham Club is a place to connect, celebrate great music, and share memorable evenings together.

Cotham Club is run by volunteers and underwitten by Cotham Parish Church.
our venue
Cotham Parish Church, Bristol, is a striking, recently refurbished 19th-century church and the home of Cotham Club. Its high ceiling and stone pillars frame an open, flexible space with natural acoustics, creating a unique atmosphere for live music — atmospheric, immersive, and unlike a typical gig venue.
The space blends historic character with a relaxed, welcoming feel. It’s large enough to dance, but intimate enough to feel connected to the performers and the crowd, making every night sociable and memorable.
