Bristol Harbour Festival 2026

A reimagined footprint

Stretching along the harbourside from Thekla to Underfall Yard, the festival’s refreshed layout turns Bristol’s iconic waterfront into a living stage – packed with back-to-back entertainment, dockside moments and maritime magic. View festival areas here.
