A donated piece of art is awarded to the best drawing of the evening. Full review here: ;-) http://nilights.info/event-46-drink-draw/ Voicebox comedy runs on the last Friday of every month. A bring your own comedy club where you'll find great local comedic talent trying out new material. Expect a night of various comedy acts including improv, performance poetry and musical comedy. A bargain giggle.

Stressed wooden staircases, exposed attic beams and huge…read moresouth facing windows contribute to a light flooded space that hums with an atmosphere of expectation. As soon as you walk in you can immediately tell that great things happen here. This collective of bright young Artists currently includes Brian Kelt, Louise Younger, Jan Gorman, Christina Ellen Maher, David-Lee Badger, Mike Harvey, Gemma Gallagher, Eoin McGinn (aka Emic), Chris Loughlin and Erin Hagan. A real melting pot of talented painters, illustrators, photographers and installation artists. On a recent visit to Loft it was a delight to view paintings by Eoin McGinn and Brian Kelt as I've long been a fan of their work. I also heard from David-Lee Badger about Deadbeat, which is an online platform for the arts, filled with music, design and arts related interviews and reviews. You can check out and follow Deadbeat's Twitter account @deadbeatweets. The Loft Collective run monthly Drink and Draw events, which are informal drawing sessions. It's BYOB and some art materials are supplied by Inkmonkey art shop. They also host comedy nights. Keep an eye on their Facebook page for more event information: https://www.facebook.com/loftbelfast.

    The Warzone Centre - Vegan Event Lecture at The Centre

    The (Warzone) Centre has a subterranean feel despite being located up a flight of stairs in Little…read moreVictoria Street. It's not well signposted, so could easily be missed. I would describe this place as being like marmite, you'll either love it or hate it. To really appreciate The Centre you need to fully understand it's history, ethics and reason for existence. It was created in 1986 and has opened and closed over the years, changing location a few times. Born out of a need to serve 'alternative culture' in Belfast, it's home to music gigs, art workshops, Giros Vegetarian Cafe, talks, lectures, meetings, gatherings and art exhibitions. It fills a space and need in Belfast which just isn't being met anywhere else and is run by volunteers. Atmosphere is grungy and dark with mural painted walls and twinkly fairy lights strung across the ceiling. To visualise the appearance and vibe of this place think - punk, gothic, rock, band posters, creative, different, alternative and absolutely not mainstream - and you'll be someway there. I've attended a couple of Vegan Event talks here which were excellent and sampled some delicious spicy vegetarian stew from Giros - thanks to the generous Colin W for sharing it with me! There's a stage, Giros Cafe kitchen and counter, tables, chairs and plenty of floor space. Anyone can book this Centre for an event, to do so you just email: warzonegigcollective@riseup.net For information on upcoming events visit the Warzone website or Facebook page at: http://www.warzonecollective.com http://www.facebook.com/pages/Warzone-gig-collective/156649134364054 I would also recommend keeping an eye on the Plant Based Living Facebook page for event information: https://www.facebook.com/Plant-Based-Living-1561868980720956/

The whole place is decorated with some awesome artwork in a very street art/graffiti type vibe. As a venue itself its of moderate size and seems capable of handling a variety of types of event. I attended a vegan talk there last night and it was my first time in the centre. (I hadn't even realised it was there!) Definitely a trendy, heart of the city kind of place. I'd recommend it for any number of events.

Clean, functional and accommodating, I have seen numerous events here from poetry slams to comedy improv shows. It's BYOB too, which is a great addition!

    The Crescent Arts Centre is a basic but contemporary looking venue…read more It functions as a community arts centre for the people of Belfast and holds a variety of dance, music, creative writing and visual art / craft classes for all. They also push the boat out by holding a artistic participatory events, exhibitions and performances. The Crescent Arts Centre are also the curators of the City Dance Festival and Belfast's longest running literary festival - Between the Lines. I was there recently for the Trans:mission night, showcasing the best Irish electronica musicians, as part of Belfast's innovative trans festival. I was itching to see Nouveau Noise, from Dublin who play deliciously glitchy and lush electronica. The set up was very relaxed. It was a mere £5 in and BYOB. Everyone in the main room was seated round tables dotted around the venue and chatting away. On stage there were electronica acts playing some really interesting and innovative stuff with some cool visuals being projected behind them. In the middle of the night, there was a drawing competition- where two massive boards were erected each side of the stage and a 'crew' of illustrators and street artists from Dublin had to freestyle a picture, with a Dj playing in the background. It made for such an interesting night. I'm all for Arts spaces opening up their doors to gigs, like Block T in Dublin. And the bring your own booze door policy is always a winner.
