Live Music & Gigs in Southampton

Right in the centre, Popworld is the one for a late one, an 18+ bar and club built around VIP booths, cocktails and birthday tabs that runs into the small hours. For touring bands and bigger shows, it is a drive out to Salisbury City Hall, where tickets start at £28.60 and you can grab pizza or hotdogs at the bar. Over in Southsea, the Wedgewood Rooms covers gigs and club nights on the cheaper end, with tickets from £7. For choosing, age and price do most of the work. The Wedgewood Rooms is a 14+ venue, e-tickets only, no re-entry once you leave, and worth knowing if you are after something with a lower age limit than a standard club night. Popworld is strictly adults, so leave the teenagers at home for that one. Salisbury City Hall costs more but suits a proper gig or touring show rather than a night out. If budget is the deciding factor, the Wedgewood Rooms is the cheapest way in.
