Welcome to Third Space 2026
This annual festival honours the visionary artistry of our graduating BA Dance students at Bath Spa University. For three days, we invite you to step into a realm shaped by imagination— a place where ideas take flight through a range of newly created choreographic works. Each performance opens a doorway into a new world, crafted with courage, curiosity and a deep belief in the power of the arts to shift how we see and feel. This year’s programme includes solo and collaborative ventures, digital work and a newly commissioned choreography by Orla Harding. We hope these performances spark your imagination and deepen your appreciation for the power of dance to transform, question and inspire.

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.
