About us
This meetup is set up for language learners, interested in practising either their Spanish or their English (or both), while socialising and having a good time by chatting with like-minded people. At the events there are no hard rules, but participants are encouraged to switch regularly between English and Spanish so everyone has a chance to practise.

Spanish film club: La bola negra @ Watershed
Watershed, 1 Canon's Rd, Bristol BS1 5TX,, Bristol, GBCome and watch La bola negra with us at Watershed! This screening (14:20 on Saturday 7 November 2026) includes an introduction by Lorena Pino from Latinas in Bristol. You can also join the Latinas in Bristol Film Club meet-up, which will take place in the bar afterwards (at about 17:00).
Please note that YOU MUST BUY YOUR OWN TICKET. If tickets sell out you won't be able to attend, so we would recommend you buy yours sooner rather than later :)
And, if you want a fully Spanish-language day, you might want to join one of our 10:00 meet-ups earlier in the day, at Watershed or the Secret Cafe!
A genre-defying queer epic, rooted in the legacy of beloved writer Federico García Lorca, La Bola Negra tells the story of three men whose lives are intimately connected through desire, pain and inheritance, across three different eras.
Spain, 1932. A young man awaits to see if he has secured membership of the local casino. In 1937, a young nationalist soldier guards a republican prisoner. Jump to 2017 and an unexpected document is inherited by an historian from his grandfather.
Rich with Lorca's poetry, this is a dazzlingly constructed and performed triptych and a sweeping exploration of memory and queer history, honouring those whose lives and loves were too often forced into silence.
