Basement 45 opened on Friday 27th February 2009. Located on Fogmore Street (underneath the Banksy on Park st) it was known formerly as the Mandrake.

The club is laid out over one level ,and, as the name suggests was originally used as cellars and Basements for the town houses on Unity street. For those that frequented the Mandrake at any point over the last 40 plus years that it has been open, you will have no doubt been struck, as we have by the character of the buildings and fantastic layout of the club, you may have been less struck by the condition of the toilets and general dated appearance of the venue.

We have fully updated the fixtures and fittings (particularly the toilets) as part of a thorough refurbishment. We have also updated the bars, DJ Booths, dance floors, seating and entrance way.


Basement 45 has a capacity of around 300 and has 2 bars and 2 dance floors. Musically the club is diverse with Saturdays ( "Bounce" ) being largely underground House and Electro and featuring the best local, national and international DJ talent. Recent guests include : Kelevra, Heavy Feet, Stupid Fresh, Jaimie Fanatic, Hijack, Foamo, Micky Slim, The Loose Cannons, The Young Punx, Basskleph, Mowgli and TV Rock . Also watch out for regular saturday events from Morph, Frequency, Duvet Vous, Soul Shaker, Ripsnorter and lovebug.Please see listings for full event details.

Fridays are run by external promoters and range in style, from Drum n' Bass, breaks and funk, to disco, hip hop and Dubstep. Torque host the 1st friday of the month, abstractions the third friday with Futureboogie, skizm, applepips, bedlam, Nowt 2 do, Ninetree, crazylegs and property of bristol staging regular events on rotation.

So you still wanna be a dj?!

Do you fancy yourself as the next Sasha, Roni Size or DJ Craze?. Maybe your ambitions don’t stretch that far and you would be happy to play one tune in time with another. Have you always fancied having a go at DJing but never found the time, or that mate that said they would teach you never quite got round to it. Well this is your chance!
