Bristol festivalsBristol is the
festival city. Whether you’re into wellness, graffiti, balloons,
boats, arts or music; in Bristol there’ll be a festival for
it.
The best place to live
Bristol is a happy, friendly and welcoming city. People stop for a chat. People help each other out. And the polls prove it too:
- Kindest city (2016 Co-op Food poll)
- Happiest city to work in (Guardian, 2016)
- Best place to live (Sunday Times, 2017).
Can’t argue with that.
