EGO Arts Venue is a cosy community space in Coventry City Centre.
It’s home to a theatre studio and a music room.
Our address is EGO Arts Venue, The Old Boys Club, Fleet St, Coventry, CV1 3AY.
EGO Arts Venue is nestled next to St John the Baptist Church on the corner of Fleet St and Corporation St, at the bottom of Spon St.
It’s a detached building set back behind an old metal gate. If you stand at the front gate, you can see New Look on your left, Spon St on your right, and IKEA straight ahead.

There is space for drop-offs on Spon St. Exit the Ring Road at Junction 7, head towards IKEA and turn left, then left again after the Town Crier pub.
PARKING
There’s a small car park on Spon St, and parking on Lower Holyhead Rd. Both are pay & display. The nearest big car park is Belgrade Plaza.
We announced the move in February 2025.
Why is it called The Old Boys Club?
Behind our new building is a very old school building which dates back to 1560 and used to be the home of Bablake, a boys-only school. Our building is a 19th-century schoolhouse which was more recently a social club for ex-students of Bablake.
Is it wheelchair accessible?
Yes. All rooms are on the ground floor, which is accessible by ramp. There is an accessible toilet. Please note that there is a step up into our front garden from Fleet St, so we recommend accessing our building from Hill St for level access.
