About The Loco Klub

The Loco Klub is an arts, music and club venue in the former Ash Pits of Brunel's original Temple Meads station in Bristol. It is reached through a tunnel off Clock Tower Yard beside the station, uses the old railway workers' social club on the site, and is run as a joint venture with the Invisible Circus. The venue is a series of Victorian brick tunnels: Tunnel 2 is the main room, with a large stage, an L-Acoustics PA and room for 400 on club nights, while other tunnels hold the bar, an aerial rig, a second stage and a theatre space. Alongside theatre, circus and live music, its autumn 2026 club nights include drum and bass and hardtek with Tech Genetics, dubstep with 23 Degrees, gabber, breaks and the house and disco party Club Love.
