The Island
"We believe the Island to be an invaluable and dynamic resource both as a working space for artists and a public performance venue."

A vast multi use arts complex in the heart of Bristol city centre. This iconic and historical site is home to over 40 artists studios, training and rehearsal facilities, a performance venue, recording studio, photo lab, video editing lounge and costume, prop and set making resources.
Owners Urban Splash have fully supported the development of The Island into a vibrant and dynamic creation centre. With an original agreement of two years for the site this has now been extended for another 3 years due to the success of the initiative and the wide-ranging support it attracts.
