Advance tickets are available through the following outlets:

ALT TICKETS
Tel: 0871 310 0000
Web: www.alt-tickets.co.uk

GIGANTIC
Web: www.gigantic.com

PLEASE NOTE
The boat itself does not have a box office on board, so you can’t buy advance tickets directly through us, you can however pay on the door - providing the gig hasn’t sold out.


We are generally an 18+ only bar & venue. Some shows are 14+ though, but you should check the listings before buying tickets as you may be refused entry.


OPENING TIMES
The bar is open from midday until late every day, serving food at lunch time and early evening too. Doors for gigs generally open between 7pm and 8pm, but you can give us a call to be sure. Club nights kick off about 10pm and usually run until 3am in the week and 4am at the weekend.

I LOVE RADIO 2

Hello. We've been expecting you. In celebration of the new Bond film Quantum of Solace, this Saturday 1st November we reach an all time high with the 'I Love Radio 2' JAMES BOND SPECIAL!

Photobucket

We've got a licence to play killer tunes by DJ Gareth and his goldfinger. There'll be all the usual classic rock and pop songs, plus the very best Bond themes too. Nobody does it better!

You only live twice, so come and join us. Diamonds are forever, but we're only here for 4 hours from 11pm-3am. You'll be shaken not stirred aboard the good ship Thekla.

Ahoy there Thekla! It's only us! This Saturday 4th October it's time once again to tune in to the groovy sounds of "I Love Radio 2"

Photobucket

4 hours of retro finger-clickin' tunes and shoe-shufflin' anthems upstairs on the Thekla.
Oh yes!
Bristol Archive Records

Just a quick message to say that...

www. bristolarchiverecords. com

was launched this week.

Bristol Archive Records is a record label dealing in Bristol post punk 1977 onwards.
We aim to showcase music from the diverse Bristol Music scene and provide a historical account / document of all things Bristol that should never be forgotten. Many of the artists and releases are rare, unknown or never before released. The material has been lovingly digitally remastered from vinyl, ¼ inch tape, dat or cassette. The original vinyl releases would generally have been limited to runs of 1000 copies or less.

We would like to thank the original label owners and/or the artists for allowing us to share with you their forgotten works and provide a statement of how brilliant bands have always been from the city of Bristol and the surrounding areas.

Enjoy and never forget the talented ones from the past, they deserve to be recognised & remembered.
I LOVE RADIO 2

All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey. But do some Thekla dreaming and you'll be OK.

Photobucket

It might be the Autumn but we'll continue to put the sunshine into your life. Please join us this Saturday 6th September upstairs on the good ship Thekla in Bristol for more groovy tunes from across the decades.
Nice!
