If you’re in the early stages of building something creative, or just want a night of inspiration surrounded by people doing exactly that, this one’s for you.
Canopy Demo Night is coming to Bath Spa University’s Locksbrook campus on 28th April. It’s a celebration of creative entrepreneurship with live demos, great conversation, and a party atmosphere.
Here’s what to expect:
• A fireside chat with Zillah Watson — former head of VR at the BBC, immersive storytelling innovator, and founder of Phase Space (you’ll get to try her VR headsets on the night!) and Coral Manton, artist-technologist and head of the Centre for Creative Technology at Bath Spa.
• A live portrait artist (you could leave with a drawing of yourself)
• Student and academic entrepreneurs demoing their boldest creative ideas
• A podcast recording live on the night
• Drinks, food, and tours of the workshops at Locksbrook
We’ll be showcasing the entrepreneurial activity going on at BSU and to sparking a conversation about the path to commercializing research and creative practice. It’s an evening to get inspired, make real connections, and be part of Bath’s creative and entrepreneurial community.
Tuesday 28 April 2026
Doors from 6pm | Fireside chat with Zillah + Demos from 6:30pm
