The Best Live Music Venues In South Devon
Unlike Bristol, London, Manchester or any other major city around the UK with a thriving music scene, the area of South Devon and its towns and cities are not entirely overrun with live music venues.
Unfortunately, this means that there is only a certain amount of gigs that can take place at any one time.
Additionally, not being a traditional stopping point for bands that are touring the UK, South Devon can often be missed off the list with Bristol being the south-westerly most point of most touring artists.
