Bristol Harbor Festival 2024: Absolutely everything you need to know

Bristol’s Harbor Festival returns this weekend, bringing with it three days of live music, entertainment, food, drink and a celebration of all things Bristol Harbourside. It runs from today (Friday 19 July) until Sunday at various locations across the city.

With that in mind, and given the late additions to the schedule announced just a few days ago, we’ve compiled a comprehensive guide to the festival.

It includes everything you need to know about the event, from how to get there and whether you need tickets, to this year’s line-up of shows and new special areas and VIP benefits. We’ll be bringing you all the action in a live blog on the BristolLive website throughout the weekend as well.
