05 — Support grassroots

Support grassroots music in Torquay

Grassroots venues are where every act you have ever paid to see started out. Torquay still has 8 of them.

In Torquay the big nights play The Foundry, Babbacombe Theatre has the seaside shows, and the harbour's Devon Arms runs a Monday jam and weekend bands.

Grassroots rooms are disappearing: 78 stopped hosting live music in the year to July 2025, 30 of them for good, and pubs closed at around two a day in the first quarter of 2026. Lose them and you lose the first rung - the support slots and midweek nights every bigger act started on.

Think of this as the city's noticeboard: 0 gigs across Torquay in the next four weeks, alongside 8 grassroots venues and 6 regular open mic nights, updated daily from the rooms that host them. There is no algorithm and no paid placement.

The single most useful thing anyone can do is turn up. Buy a ticket, buy a drink at the bar, and go to a night you have not been to before. If you would rather be told than remember, the sign-up below sends Torquay listings straight to your inbox. If you run a venue here, claim your page so people can find you. Start small: The Devon Arms hosts an open mic each Monday.

Go to one this month

06 — Questions9 answersWhat's on in Torquay

What's on in Torquay this weekend?

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

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

We currently list 0 gigs in Torquay 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 Exeter in the gig directory or every city we cover.

Are there free gigs in Torquay?

None of the Torquay gigs currently listed are marked free entry, though many venues do not publish a price at all. Exeter 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 Torquay?

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

Which Torquay venues have the most on?

We track 8 grassroots venues in Torquay — see the Exeter area venue directory for capacity, backline and opening times.

Where can I find open mic nights in Torquay?

Torquay has 6 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 Exeter area open mic finder, or the UK-wide finder.

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

Most Torquay 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 Torquay 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. Torquay still has 8 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 Torquay gig or venue listed on GIGXCHANGE?

Listing is free and takes about two minutes — submit through the Exeter 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.
