Posted on: 13 Jan 2020Is Monday the worst day of the week? Almost definitely. But it doesn’t have to be.
Just because the weekend is over doesn’t mean the fun has to stop, especially here in Bristol. From delicious food deals to eclectic live music, there's several ways to ease yourself into the working week.
So, here's nine things to do on a Monday night in Bristol.
Gin Jam: Open Stage Night @ Mr Wolf’s
Gin and musical jam: what could be better? Mr Wolf’s weekly open stage night is happening every Monday night until Summer 2020, kicking off at 21:00.
Hosted by a friendly bunch of resident musicians, the night culminates into one big open jam. Head down for great music, and stay for late-night DJs and drink deals.
Bunch of Japes: Stand Up Comedy Night @ Smoke & Mirrors
Want to see brand-new material from some of the country’s best stand-up comedians – at a fraction of the usual cost?
Well, now you can. Every week, Smoke & Mirrors’ weekly Bunch of Japes comedy night welcomes budding and established comics alike to test out brand-new material.
In the past, the bar has seen the likes of Romesh Ranganathan, Alan Carr and Jayde Adams perform at a Bunch of Japes comedy night. (Yes, really!)
A chance to get ahead of the comedy curve, Bunch of Japes is a no-brainer for Bristol-based fans of stand-up.
