About Hole In The Wall

Hole In The Wall is a grassroots music venue in York, York with a standing capacity of approximately 80. PA system and vocal mics are provided; bring your own instruments and amps.

This listing is part of the York venue directory.

The ‌‌‍Hole in the Wall is a busy Marston's pub at 10 High Petergate in York (YO1 7EH), sitting just 50 metres from York Minster beside one of the gates to the old city. It's a lively, traditional pub with a wide range of cask ales and an extensive pub-food menu, and it leans hard into live music — hosting live acts on Tuesday and Sunday evenings, with performances kicking off around 9pm. A Thursday-night quiz fills out the week. The atmosphere gets genuinely buzzing on music and quiz nights, and the central, tourist-heavy location keeps a steady crowd. A solid, accessible spot for solo acts and covers bands on York's pub circuit.
