Woking venue declared ‘Most Dedicated Community Arts Venue 2024 - South East England’.

Newly re-opened Phoenix Cultural Centre, on Goldsworth Road in Woking, has been honoured for its work as a Community Arts Venue.

Hi, I’m Elaine McGinty. I co-founded the Phoenix Cultural Centre CIC and the Fiery Bird Live Music Venue in Woking with Joe Buckley. I write and perform poetry and work on various social and community issues.

As we reopen we will need to increase our current ‘small but mighty’ volunteer team.

Our Aims – What the Phoenix Centre is about.
To provide a live music, cultural and grassroots arts venue in Woking.

ECOWorld London offered us this great building and made it safe for the community, our volunteers turned it from an office into a vibrant community space & live music venue.

So excited to share our latest press release!
Green light for Phoenix Cultural Centre’s new temporary venue at 32 Goldsworth Road.

Our monthly Sunday afternoon Fiery Bird Showcase continues at The Junction Coffee Shop, Woking.

We won't be opening for Open Mic night this Monday 18th July but we will be back on the 25th.

The Fiery Bird will be launching in 2017.  This will be a 1000 person capacity venue in the heart of Woking.

We’ve been getting lots of questions about the opening date of the permanent Phoenix Cultural Centre/Fiery Bird Live Music Venue.

Every Monday night from 7.30 to 10pm come down to the Junction Coffee Shop.

There is so much in the pipeline, BUT we still are waiting on the YourFund decision on our community venue refit from Surrey County Council.

We are very excited to hear that we have been awarded Government funding thanks to the DCMS (Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee) Culture Recovery Fund.

The vision remains, but the dates have moved.

"So, we are moving forward with this, no large building yet, but lots of support and it's all starting to come together. We've been asked to write a blog about how it's come about to this but like most things time is an issue.

The Fiery Bird will be launching in 2017.  This will be a 1000 person capacity venue in the heart of Woking.
