Welcome to the Gig Society homepage !

Finding good live music can be hard with so many options available, but that's where we come in! Our main goal is to connect students with the vibrant Bristol music scene by hosting regular student gigs, weekly pub socials, and music quizzes. Through our shared love of music, we bring together a community of enthusiastic gig-goers and headphone-listeners alike.
We have some exciting gigs lined up for the next year, featuring a mix of student bands and the best up-and-coming artists from Bristol and beyond. If you or your friends make music and want to perform it live, we want to hear from you! Upload videos/audio to our demos form and we might be in touch...
Weekly pub socials are held every Monday at The Apple, a pub on a boat. You don’t need to be a member to join us, and it’s an amazing way to meet like-minded people (I genuinely met so many amazing friends here when I started uni – Oskar, Events Manager).
We also hold music quizzes, written by the one and only Scott Owen – guaranteed to be some of the best music questions you've ever heard. We're planning to host regular interviews with artists this year too, which will be uploaded to our youtube channel!
Although membership isn't required to come to most of our events, it does come with some perks which (in our opinion) make it very much worth it:
- Massively discounted tickets to our gigs
- Exclusive GigSoc membership card (show it off to your friends to gain instant respect)
- Access to the ✨ GigSoc Members ✨ group chat, where we'll send discounts and other cool stuff
We’re a laid-back, community-focused society for all music lovers, no matter your taste. Everyone is welcome, not just music fanatics (although you guys can join too!). Come alone, come with friends, come with strangers you met on the way - we have events every week (they'll blow your mind 😎)
