Come along to 2023’s Hive Live

This summer the Hive Live is back! Hive Live is a community and music event organised by the Young People of Exmouth, open to the public to take part in a variety of games and activities for all ages, learn more about space and to watch the young people share their talents in a live show.

Hive Live is an annual event run by The Hive Youth Centre in partnership with our youth centres and teams across Space Youth Services. Giving young people aged 11-19 years the opportunity to perform music, dance or poetry to their local community. It is a social event for young people, families and the local community in Exmouth, and a chance for us to promote our wider offer for young people through our service and other local services. There will also be a mixture of games and activities throughout the day run by youth workers and young people such as team games and wellbeing activities.

    • Provides an opportunity for young people ages 11-19 years to perform music, dance or poetry within their local community

    • Raise the profile of positive activities by young people in the community

Our Previous Hive Live Success

Last year Hive Live was a great success! Like this year it was held at Manor Gardens, Alexandra Terrace, Exmouth and hosted by the youth workers and young people at The Hive Youth Centre (Exmouth). This music and community event brings the public together and allows us at Space Youth Services to show the local community what we do both at Space and at their local youth centre The Hive YC (Exmouth).

Last year we had a variety of performances, activities and games on the day for everyone in the community to take part in. These 12 performances included; 2 bands, 5 solo artists, 2 young person drum offs and 3 young people dancing. The activities and games on the day included things like face painting, zorbs, croquet, Dungeons & dragons and much more. We also used the time to talk to the public more about what Space Youth Services actually do and promote what we get up to.
