Bridgehouse

Five floors fizzing with sound, light and joy

Renamed and reimagined, our entrance hall can be transformed into a vibrant performance space.

Five floors of bridges and balconies offer a spectacular birds-eye-view of the Bridgehouse stage that has become the heart of incredible festivals such as Simple Things, Dot To Dot, Bristol Takeover, BBC Proms, Hoo-Ha! and BBC Radio 6 Music Festival.
