Get your tickets here!

Creation Station is a space for artists, musicians, performers, filmmakers, writers, makers and other creatives to come together, work on ideas, meet people and collaborate.

We’re bringing creative technologists, visual artists, musicians, writers and engineers together for a day of creative synergy and collaboration. Spread over 3 rooms, there’ll be plenty to experiment with, from cutting edge tech to traditional mediums.

Bring something you’re already working on, start something new, find people to create with, or simply come along and see what happens.

There’s no fixed programme and no pressure to produce anything. You can drop in, leave and come back whenever you like during the day.

You’re welcome to bring your own creative work, instruments, laptop, sketchbook, ideas or anything else you might want to work with.

It’s completely free to attend, but please book a place so we have an idea of numbers.

Optional Workshops

We will be offering free to attend workshops on the day alongside the creative space. These will be limited in number to the nature of them so if you would like to attend please book your space below.

If you find you are unable to attend please could you cancel your ticket or let us know so we can offer the space to someone else.
