05 — Support grassroots

Support grassroots music in Guildford

Grassroots venues are where every act you have ever paid to see started out. Guildford still has 10 of them.

In Guildford the Boileroom carries the grassroots gigs, G Live takes the big shows, and the open mic nights run at the City Club, the Jubilee Social Club and The Drummond.

In the year to July 2025, 78 UK grassroots venues stopped putting on live music and 30 closed outright, while pubs shut at about two a day in early 2026. Each one was somewhere a band played its first paid gig or a songwriter tried a new song on a room of strangers.

Think of this as the city's noticeboard: 0 gigs across Guildford in the next four weeks, alongside 10 grassroots venues and 7 regular open mic nights, updated daily from the rooms that host them. There is no algorithm and no paid placement.

So go. Pick a night you would not normally choose, buy a ticket and a drink, and bring a friend. The sign-up below sends Guildford listings to your inbox each week, and if you run a room here, claim your venue page to keep it accurate. Start small: The Row Barge hosts an open mic each Tuesday.

Go to one this month

Between now and 29 Nov there are 0 gigs in Guildford, and 10 grassroots venues and 7 regular open mic nights. One night out this month keeps a room's diary full.

06 — Questions9 answersWhat's on in Guildford

What's on in Guildford this weekend?

Nothing is listed in Guildford for this weekend (Sun 1 Nov) yet - see the next 28 days below, or the Woking area open mics, which run every week.

What live music is on in Guildford over the next four weeks?

We currently list 0 gigs in Guildford between 1 Nov and 29 Nov. The listings above are the full set, sorted by date and refreshed daily from the venues themselves — no algorithm decides what you see. For everything beyond this window, browse every upcoming gig in and around Woking in the gig directory or every city we cover.

Are there free gigs in Guildford?

None of the Guildford gigs currently listed are marked free entry, though many venues do not publish a price at all. Woking area open mic nights are your reliable free option — most charge nothing to watch or to play.

What is the busiest night for live music in Guildford?

There is no clear busiest night in Guildford at the moment — the 0 listed gigs are spread thinly across the 28-day window. Listings update daily.

Which Guildford venues have the most on?

We track 10 grassroots venues in Guildford — see the Woking area venue directory for capacity, backline and opening times.

Where can I find open mic nights in Guildford?

Guildford has 7 regular open mic nights that we verify on a rolling cycle. Each listing carries the sign-up time, slot length, entry fee and whether a PA and backline are provided — see the Woking area open mic finder, or the UK-wide finder.

How much does a gig cost in Guildford, and what should an artist be paid?

Most Guildford venues in our listings do not publish a ticket price in advance. Grassroots entry is typically a few pounds on the door, and many nights are free. On the other side of the transaction, the Musicians' Union publishes national gig rates as the recognised floor for live engagements, and the ISM publishes guidance for self-employed musicians. Our own UK gig rate benchmarks show what artists are actually being paid by region and act type.

Why do grassroots venues in Guildford matter?

Grassroots rooms are where every act you have paid to see learned to hold an audience. Two pubs a day closed across the UK in the first quarter of 2026, and over the year to July 2025 78 grassroots music venues stopped putting on live music — 30 of them for good. Guildford still has 10 on our list. Music Venue Trust campaigns for them nationally; venues themselves navigate PRS licensing and local authority licensing to keep putting music on. The single most useful thing anyone can do is turn up and buy a drink at the bar.

How do I get a Guildford gig or venue listed on GIGXCHANGE?

Listing is free and takes about two minutes — submit through the Woking area gig directory and it is reviewed before it goes live. No account is needed and there is no listing fee. If you run a venue here, claim your venue page to keep its capacity, backline and contact details current. Promoters and venues booking acts can also post paid work or find artists directly.
