Area81 is a recently opened underground venue dedicated to putting on Rock Music via rock bands of all types & rock music via local rock dj's.

We are located in Lawrence Hill in Bristol, between Holy Skin tattoo shop & the Pack Horse pub (map) There is a bar on the ground floor entrance with all drinks at regular pub prices and not hiked up night club prices.

The main stage area is downstairs and carries on back right underneath the road with gothic artwork on the walls both sides & a real earthy feel to the laid back atmosphere. Acoustics are excellent and there is a chillout room even further down for those who just want to get away from the sounds for a chat.

Area81 is open every friday night for a rock disco upstairs & every 2 weeks on a Saturday for live bands downstairs in the cellar.
