Bristol Beacon

Overall thoughts

Bristol Beacon has recently had a massive renovation so it’s pretty modern. It’s spacious in the concourse bits with plenty of bars and a good space for merch. Sound is great and views from everywhere are good.

Check out their official information.

8/10

Sound

8/10

Really good. Very loud but vocals are generally clear and nothing is too high a level.

Views

9/10

Views from all around at excellent at Bristol Beacon. Whether you’re on the floor standing, in the stalls or one of the balconys the stage is easy to see and all seats are pretty close.

Merch stand

There’s a small merch stand on the main floor, and it’s never that busy.

Food & drink

Better than the usual fare. Local bakery Bristol Loaf have a cafe on the ground floor serving food until 7pm, and local beer, cider, and lager after that. £7(ish) for a beer isn’t too bad. More standard stuff on the main venue floors.

Toilets

Ridiculously few toilets for a venue of this size. Clean but tiny.

Car parking

There’s a big NCP car park right next to the Bristol Beacon, very convenient and always spaces. More information on parking.

Public transport

Not sure.

Accessibility

There is information on the accessibility of the Bristol Beacon on their site.
