Last updated on 10th March 2020
@ Hen and Chicken on Every Saturday
Hen and Chicken's upstairs room has been giving us all a good laugh for more than 20 years, and is still the venue to catch top-notch comedy at affordable prices. Taking place every Saturday, Stand Up For The Weekend welcomes some of the biggest names in an intimate joint.
@ The Fleece on Friday 10th July 2020 and 2 other Fridays
More a religious happening than a club night, Ultimate Power is one of the best events in Bristol. Tune your air guitars, dust off your mullet wigs and get ready to sing your heart out to the best power anthems of all time.
@ The Kensington Arms on Every 1st Sunday of the month
Looking for a light-hearted evening of humour? Then Blue Mustard Comedy's monthly event is the one for you. What's more, The Kensington Arms will be dishing up roasts until 7pm, providing you with the perfect stage-side meal.
@ The Milk Thistle on Every 4th Thursday of the month
Turns out drinking endless amounts of G&Ts doesn't automatically turn you into an alcohol expert. What does, however, is The Milk Thistle's gin club which focuses on a different brand each month and the various distilling secrets required, as well as offering up various sips and light nibbles throughout.
@ PRYZM on Every Saturday
Riproar has moved to Pryzm to bring you an even bigger Saturday night of shenanigans. Expect the usual line-up of three top comedians, followed by entry to the super club which is included in the ticket price.
@ Thekla on Every Saturday
@ Lola Lo Bristol on Every Friday
Mix Fridays at Lola Lo are the best way to welcome in the weekend in Bristol. Along with a soundtrack of commercial hits and summery vibes, the tiki-themed club also shakes up a number of fruity sips and tropical punches to keep your energy levels high throughout the night.
@ Bristol Cider Shop on Every Friday
Sure, you know your Rekorderlig from your Magners, but do you know your dries from your sweets? Bristol Cider Shop is giving you a 101 in all things apple-y with their Friday tastings. Expect plenty of tipples and a whole load of knowledge.
@ Upside Down House - The Mall, Cribbs Causeway on Various dates from Thursday 9th July 2020
One of the best Instagram spots in the city, this unique addition to Cribbs Causeway is taking up a spot at The Mall to bring you a whole new angle on life. Step into a quirky reverse world where you can walk on ceilings.
