Coventry, day by day

Coventry's calendar is a West Midlands circuit page, and it does not pretend otherwise. The feed holds 136 listings across 41 venues (89 music, 19 community events, 17 comedy), and many of the rooms sit in the bigger neighbours: Caffeine and Machine: The Hill leads with 11 listings, Birmingham's O2 Institute2 holds 10 and its O2 Academy 6, and the O2 Academy Leicester holds 8. The Sunflower Lounge in Birmingham adds 7 more. Coventry audiences have always travelled for gigs; this page gathers the travelling in one place.

Use it alongside the neighbours rather than instead of them. Birmingham's own page is 27 km away in the Near row, with Wolverhampton at 46 and Banbury at 40, and the three calendars overlap heavily because the tours do. What the Coventry page adds is the filter: everything here was filed for a Coventry reader, so the rooms, the late trains and the weekend choices are the ones that work from here. The digest re-issues every week as the circuit publishes.
