"Legendary Club on a Boat"

The infamous Thekla is one of Bristol's oldest clubs located inside an iron ship moored in the harbor. Do not expect super-club glam, do not bother dressing up and definitely do not look for any frills. However, what you can expect is top music; downstairs the live acts and DJs get the dance floor moving and upstairs is often more lively. Hosting various nights, from jungle to break beats to garage and funk, the crowd attracted is a good mix. This is the only club in the city where you can gaze out of portholes at swans asleep on the water below!

St George's Bristol "Beautiful Old Building Hosting Classical Concerts"

This unique venue is very highly rated in the classical music world and has many fans. One BBC presenter described it as: "It feels as though the artists have come to play to you and you alone. It has a warm welcoming atmosphere and the ambiance of a truly great hall but it's much by Peter Barr prettier than them all". Visiting classical music fans will be equally enamored with it, no doubt. The resident orchestra, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, perform regularly and there are recitals from major composers, plus pieces by contemporary and little-known composers. There are also regular jazz performances, world music, choirs, opera, lunchtime concerts and the occasional lecture. Look out for rare and very special performances by some of the pop/rock world's big names-Bjork and Elvis Costello have both performed here, to name just two. A small gallery of contemporary art and a licensed cafe, reside in the wonderfully atmospheric and beautifully-restored crypt at the basement of the building-a great place for a civilized snack or glass of wine.
