EVENT INFO
Summer Social at Blackfriars Priory is a series of socially distanced live events taking place in the beautiful Cloister Garden of our 13th century Priory.

Book your spot in the Garden and enjoy sun covered evening performances from some of Gloucestershire's best musicians and bands. Relax with family and friends with an ice cold drink from our bar, or share one of our delicious snack boxes.

Set in front of the Scriptorium - widely regarded as the oldest surviving purpose built library in Europe - our stage will host spirit lifting performances throughout August.

Appearances include festival favourites Thrill Collins, a special blues & roots filled Damon T Celebratory Concert, a two night take-over from The Music Works; showcasing the finest young talent in the city from indie, folk and pop through to funk, RnB and Hip Hop. That's not all! Barleyfield records bring their Reggae soundsystem, we'll host Gloucester wordsmiths for a special Food For Thoughts poetry night, and a bank holiday Comedy night still to be announced!
