The scene in Exeter

Move has run on Exeter's Quayside since 1980, first under the name Boxes - over 40 years in the same intimate, 200-capacity underground room, a genuine rarity for a venue this size.

It's built its reputation on sound as much as booking: a bespoke Funktion-One system anchors the room, and newer additions - Move Studio and Move Live - extend it into full live-band nights and a DJ/MC practice space.

Where it happens

The Quayside, a short walk from Exeter Cathedral, has been Move's home for the whole of its history.

How buying a ticket works, in practice

Every listing above is a real event. Each one links to where its tickets are sold: on On The Door when the promoter sells through us, or on the organiser’s own ticket page. When you buy here, the price you see is the price you pay, with no booking fee added at checkout, and your ticket is a QR code on your phone that you show at the door.
