Raise the Bar has for the last four years been bringing the country and world’s finest spoken word performers to Bristol, as well as providing a talent development platform for emerging artists in the South-West. Our resident DJ Ngaio (of Booty Bass) will be spinning an incredible selection of hip-hop, R&B, world music and UK underground. |
Raise the Bar’s shows at Arnolfini showcase the best of UK and world spoken word poetry, whilst giving a local artists showcase and platform for development. These are always high quality, high energy shows.
