Invest Now and Help us Own Our Venues
Grassroots Music Venues (GMVs) are at the heart of our culture – where we come together and where artists at the beginning of their career develop their creativity.
​​
The issue of property ownership underlies almost every other challenge that GMVs have faced during the last 20 years.
​
But Music Venue Properties is the solution - We can Own Our Venues
​
Since 2022, We have raised over £2.88M and secured 5 venues through community ownership. But the future of live music depends on further action and so we have launched our 2nd Community Share Offer as once again we come together.
​
This next group of venues has a combined history of over 150 years hosting gigs. It features key touring locations that have played a part in the careers of legendary artists from Coldplay and Green Day to Wolf Alice and Arctic Monkeys.
​
The securing of these properties will help ensure that their operators can continue to protect their legacy and provide more opportunities for artists and audiences alike. They include:
Esquires, Bedford
The Joiners, Southampton
Peggy’s Skylight, Nottingham
The Croft, Bristol
The Sugarmill, Stoke
The Lubber Fiend, Newcastle
The Pipeline, Brighton
