Welcome to the home of ACE Space!

The Arts, Community and Enterprise Hub
in the Centre of Newbury

ACE Space is a Newbury based charitable organisation providing a home for live music, a platform for local artists and a hall space for private hire and for community groups.

Located a few minutes from the train station and close to the high street, ACE Space’s spacious hall and bar are easy to access and easy to enjoy. We’re a low-cost venue offering classes, functions and arts to the community. Whether that means you’ll be joining us for the most popular Open Mic night in town, hiring out the space to run the class or workshop you’ve been planning, or even volunteering with our vibrant cast of supporters – we’d be happy to meet you.

The first Friday of every month, ACE Space plays host to an open Mic evening. Why not come along? We welcome musicians, poets, comedians and anyone who wants to perform in front of an audience. We also present a live gig once or twice a month.

(Please note that parking at ACE Space is extremely limited. See our Parking Page for more information.)

Projects

Year by year, step by step, the ACE Space team have made improvements to the hall. Our most recent projects were adding a wheelchair accessible toilet and insulating the bar area which was uncomfortably cool in the winter and hot in the summer.  That made the area more energy efficient and let-able as a separate space. Money was raised by our fund-raising activities including selling CD’s and signed gig posters with those funds match funded by the wonderful folk at The Good Exchange.
