Fans of Grease won’t want to miss this one! The Redgrave Theatre at Clifton College are putting on a special screening to make the musical’s 40th Anniversary which promises to be an all singing, all dancing affair. Tickets cost £16.00 and are on sale now.
Throughout the month of July Shakespeare fans can attend performances and events at unusual locations throughout Bristol. I’ve been to a couple of these in the past and they are great! For a full schedule check out the website.
The Gromit Unleashed trail is back for a second round, this time featuring two new characters in the form of Wallace and Feathers McGraw. Whether you do the entire trail, or snap a few selfies as you happen across the characters this is one of my favourite Bristol events and supports The Grand Appeal raising funds for Bristol Children’s Hospital.
This is an event I’ve been to many a time and always enjoy. It’s a annual, free harbour side celebration of music and arts where you can watch local talent, eat local food and get drunk on local booze. For full listings head to the website, sadly I can’t go this year but if you do, it won’t disappoint.
Bristol is famous for it’s plethora of graffiti and Upfest, now in it’s 10th year takes over the streets of Bedminster to showcase the best of the world’s artists. You can get a taste of previous artists and offerings here, but really this is one you have to experience for yourself.
Arguably the most famous Summer event in Bristol, the International Balloon Fiesta is a free event that takes place at Ashton Court (just outside of the city). With Balloons from all over the world taking part in spectacular displays- from the early morning ascents to the amazing night glows (all weather permitting) this is a four day event that never gets old.
These all sound great! Wish I lived there for them!
There sounds like there is lots going in Bristol this summer – I’d especially like to visit the balloon festival after seeing so many pictures on social media <3
