Venn 2008

This year Venn takes place from Thursday 5th until Sunday 8th June. Expect a round-the-clock programme of diverse gigs, sessions, workshops and broadcasts, taking place inside and out. The festival usually makes use of a wide range of small and medium sized venues, workspaces, empty shops, planetariums, ice rinks, skate parks, larger public spaces, and other unusual spots throughout the Stokes Croft district of Bristol. As Venn maintains its resolve to find fun new ways to twist the urban festival format.
