Bristol Rooms

Coming soon: Bristol Rooms, a unique collaboration space opening September 2026 in the new academic building at Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus.

Is your organisation working on societal challenges? 

Do you want to work on shared challenges with community groups, charities, social enterprises, industry, business and public sector - alongside university staff and students? 

Perhaps your mission is to support social justice, find solutions to health inequalities, innovate on city challenges? 

At our new campus, opening in September 2026, we have created the Bristol Rooms, a large civic lounge and venue as a unique space and meeting place for expertise and experience from across society. 

This is a new hub to support organisations working with university staff and students on shared challenges faced by our city-region and others around the globe.

We are currently developing the Bristol Rooms programme so it can switch between:

  1. Civic Lounge mode: open with bookable seats, often themed days, with opportunities to host.
  2. Civic Venue mode: bookable for events and workshops. 

Further information to follow as the programme develops.
