About this space
A place to settle in and get things done.
Old Bakery Studios is an independent creative hub in Truro, bringing together more than 50 studios and workspaces for small businesses, artists and entrepreneurs. Housed in the historic Blewett’s Bakery, it combines exposed beams, wooden floors, river and city views, a shared kitchen and gallery area, and a friendly, neighbourly atmosphere. It suits creative practitioners and growing businesses looking for a distinctive base rather than a conventional corporate office. The ground floor doubles as a versatile arts and events venue. Its programme includes live music, comedy, fringe theatre, film screenings and art events, giving the building an energetic cultural role within the city. With an industrial, waterside character, it offers a memorable setting for audiences who enjoy independent entertainment and a more intimate alternative to larger venues. Private hire is available for weddings, parties, celebrations, workshops, meetings and conferences. The Event Space and River Room can be arranged for different kinds of gatherings, supported by staging, lighting, sound, projection, Wi-Fi, seating, tables, a licensed bar and in-house catering. The River Room adds a quieter, more elegant option, with views towards the meeting point of Truro’s rivers. Whether you are establishing a creative business, planning a thoughtful private celebration or looking for live entertainment with character, Old Bakery Studios offers a relaxed, welcoming setting where work, culture and community meet.
