Motion Bristol
Motion is a nightclub located in the St Philip's area of Bristol.[1] It is located within a group of listed Victorian warehouses, including a former gasworks and marble factory.[2]
Previously known as Sk8 & Ride,[3] the club used to be an indoor ramp park for skateboards, BMXes and scooters, as well as a venue for hosting Punk Rock and Hardcore Punk gigs.[4] Under changed ownership and a new moniker Motion Ramp Park, from 2005 the building started playing host to club nights. Over time it became less known as a skatepark, eventually closing its sporting facilities in 2016.[5] The venue began expanding its capacities, taking on surrounding warehouses and utilising outdoor yard space.[6] In 2010 it began hosting its In:Motion series, a season of high profile clubbing events, competing with the likes of Manchester's The Warehouse Project.[7] Motion has several times been voted as one of the best nightclubs in the world in DJ Mag's yearly poll.[8][9][10][11][12][13] and one of the 11 best clubs in Bristol by Time Out (magazine) in 2021.[14]
