About Us

Find out more about who we are and what we do

We’re St George’s Bristol – a world-class, independent music venue in the heart of Bristol.
Our 580-seat concert hall was converted from a 200-year-old Georgian church, and is a truly special space where we welcome the finest performances from the world’s greatest artists. Our hall also has what Sir Simon Rattle called ‘the best acoustic for chamber music in Europe’ – meaning you can experience every note, riff, song, or symphony with perfect clarity (and often, no amplification at all!)

So you might know us for our music, but we have so much more to offer. As well as a space for music, we’re a space for performance, learning and ideas.  We even offer a philosophy season, lots of events for children and families, lunchtime concerts, plus author talks and comedians. And our beautiful building has expanded too – we now have a contemporary pavilion-style extension housing our Café Bar and Glass Studio space.
