Bristol

Bristol

Bristol has reinvented itself as a creative hub in recent decades and is a city that takes great pride in its alternative take on life.

About Bristol

Bristol, once a major maritime centre, has reinvented itself as a creative hotbed. It's home to the well-known street artist Banksy, musical acts like Massive Attack and Portishead, and the city’s flourishing independent cafes and music venues have rejuvenated many of Bristol’s old industrial neighbourhoods. Bristol was also the first UK city to become a European Green Capital.
