Live music venues in Oxford

Oxford is a compact city with a busy calendar, and its stages are spread across a wide mix of spaces. Theatres take the largest share here, from the Oxford Playhouse to the intimate Holywell Music Room, and many of them programme music alongside drama. Cultural centres such as Modern Art Oxford, the Old Fire Station and The North Wall Arts Centre host concerts, showcases and occasional nights, often with an appetite for newer acts. Add dedicated concert venues, clubs like Plush, and event venues used for private bookings and hires, and you have several routes to a date rather than a single circuit. This page lists the contacts we hold for those venues, so you can approach programmers and bookers yourself, in your own words. Direct contact takes time, but it puts your dates, your fee and your terms in front of the person who actually decides.
