August in Bristol

August already…can you believe it?! Summer always feels very much like a blink and you might miss it one so we’re here to make sure you make the most of it. And if we’re honest writing this blog for you means that we get the low down of all the hottest things not to miss too so it’s a win win!

Bristol Sausage and Cider Festival

Let’s kick this month off with something that we couldn’t be more excited about! Bristol Sausage and Cider Festival is exactly what it says on the tin and more which makes us extremely happy. Head down to the Old Passenger Shed just by Temple Meads and get your fill of local sausage and cider whilst listening to some great live music. Get your tickets here and we’ll see you there!

Riverford Supper Club

Moving on a week but staying on the same topic because who doesn’t love talking, hearing, eating food?! Riverford Supper Club on the 8th of the month at Bristol’s very own Yurt Lush just next to Temple Meads is where we’ll be heading. Whether you have jumped on this foodie bandwagon or not the menu looks too good to miss…so don’t miss it!

Balloon Fiesta

We couldn’t give you a run down of August events without mentioning this one. Bristol is famous for its Bristol balloons and the Fiesta really is a treat! Set over four days in the beautiful grounds of the Ashton Court Estate, like magic the sky fills with an array of balloons to marvel at. Now we know we may sound a little over the top but this one really has to be seen to be believed. Our favourite thing about it…it’s unique to Bristol making it even more special.

Boomtown

Now if balloons really aren’t your thing, then we do have an alternative just because again this one is too good not mention. Another festival we hear you say, yes another festival! We are in Bristol after all. It’s time to pack up the tent and the copious amounts of dry shampoo and head off to immerse yourself in one of the UK’s wildest festivals. At this festival there really are no limits, throwing its doors open to every kind of music, performance and art that you can think of and probably some that you’ve never even heard of! Do you think you can handle it?! Find tickets here.

Avon Gorge Cruises with Bristol Packet Boat trips

Nearing the end of the month we are sure that you are going to want something a little less taxing so you can recover from the busy schedule we’ve put you through! The Avon Gorge Cruises are just the thing. Take a seat and let the world drift by, quite literally, as you float towards the Suspension Bridge and down to the Bristol Channel. There is a bar on board and you can take your own picnic so make an afternoon of it.

Summer Yard Party

How is summer already drawing to a close?! It doesn’t seem that long ago that we were writing about all the summer events and activities to keep you busy! We really hope that you have made the most of the longer days…we certainly have and we think we can just about manage one more. Let’s end the month with one last knees up and it comes in the form of Motion’s Summer Yard Party. A day and night of music, food and cocktails couldn’t sound more perfect! Get your tickets here.
