About Gig Night

Gig Night is a grass-roots youth music project started in Southampton. Gig Night provides a platform for young people between 7 - 13 years old to create or join a band, perform as a solo artist, learn song-writing techniques and develop other skills required to deliver a live performance.

Exhibitions

When you’re not listening to the bands, take the opportunity to explore God’s House Tower after hours. You’ll have exclusive access to our permanent exhibition, The Stories Behind the Stones (https://godshousetower.org.uk/eventer/stories-behind-the-stones/edate/2021-07-09/). Soak in the history and take in the rooftop views of Southampton's Old Town.

In the gallery, we'll have our newest exhibtion, Ripe Blueberries (https://godshousetower.org.uk/eventer/exhibition-fruitful-ripe-blueberries/edate/2026-10-23/), showcasing the work of 12 graduate artists navigating their first few months out of university, a part of our six week progamme of exhibtions from emerging artists in Southampton, FRUITFUL.
