The Rainbow Venues
Rainbow Warehouse
The Rainbow Warehouse exhibits a vast Victorian raw brickwork warehouse space used for multi-purpose events including live shows, club events, filming location and a classic film cinema. The urban design and vast ceilings create an intense electric feel that is echoed onto the Mezzanine.
Rainbow Garden
The Garden is half under a disused Victorian railway arch, half under a transparent roofed marquee which radiates natural beams of light creating a unique atmosphere at sunrise and sunset. The Garden wouldn稚 be complete without fabricating the floor with AstroTurf.
Rainbow Courtyard
Gigs or Club nights, the Courtyard is the perfect small venue. The room has a collapsible stage and mobile DJ console making it a very versatile space, continuing the feel of the pub the walls are stripped back to red brick with natural light bathing the space from the windows mounted in the ceiling, the courtyard also has its own bar and comes complete with sound and lights.
Textile Factory
The Textile Factory is one of the latest Rainbow pop-up spaces added to the ever growing Rainbow family. It echoes the raw industrial look of the Rainbow Warehouse with elevated ceilings, natural light, raw brick and a unique outdoor space.
The Arena
The Arena is an old builder痴 merchant yard situated adjacent to the disused Railway line that runs through the heart of Digbeth and under the over-reaching curve of The Rainbow痴 embrace. Lined with deep Victorian Railway arches this open-air venue submerges you into an electric atmosphere reminiscent of The Coliseum whose amphitheatre architectures it mimics.
Spotlight
Spotlight is a quirky single room bar and event space built underneath one of Digbeth痴 many Victorian Railway Arches. With cherry red leather chesterfield sofas and sturdy steel bar stools, tables and chairs Spotlight is a comfortable place to hang out despite its Industrial feel.
Next Door
Keeping in theme with its siblings NextDoor retains a raw, industrial appearance and promotes two tiered floor spaces, providing a truly unique event space. Nestled above the performance area is a remarkable, custom-made cubist projection screen. This is partnered with intelligent and intricate 3d mapping, allowing us to illustrate spectacular audiovisuals for our performers and shows.
Cellar Door
The Cellar is a moody and atmospheric space that enjoys a sparse, minimal feel to its decor and lighting. Striped red brickwork and a few quirky furnishings make for this a unique underground venue.
