This venue in the Haidian university district is the best place to catch up-and-coming local bands. A hub for student filmmakers and musicians, D-22 lets bands doing everything from jazz to rock to ‘experimental’ music plug into their awesome sound system. Movies (foreign or Chinese) are screened at 19:00 on Wednesday and Thursday.

All D-22 staff are musicians or film-makers, and they’re dedicated to providing Beijing with good live music.
