A free event which offers something for families of all ages, the Bristol Harbour Festival has been held annually since 1972. Since August, entertainment, music, and plenty more have been enjoyed by the Bristol harbour, with international and local artists and performers involved. 
Bristol College Green is your place for child-friendly events, including storytelling, face painting, and interactive fun. The live music is spread across various stages, including the Queen Square stage, Cascade Steps, Bristol Plays Music Bandstand and SS Great Britain.
