About Creative Innovation Centre
Creative Innovation Centre is a grassroots music venue in Paul St, Taunton with a standing capacity of approximately 100. PA system and vocal mics are provided; bring your own instruments and amps.
The Creative Innovation Centre (CICCIC) occupies the Memorial Hall on Paul Street in the heart of Taunton town centre, with parking nearby. Founded in 2012, it's a not-for-profit arts, culture and creative-industries centre that doubles as one of the few performance spaces in the town: a gallery and roughly 100-capacity room hosting live music, comedy, stand-up, poetry, film evenings and workshops, with a well-stocked bar and hot drinks all day. Its 'CICCIC Introducing' nights spotlight emerging local artists across mixed genres, and a house PA supports both original acts and covers. A genuine community hub that fills a real gap for live performance in Taunton.
