Bristol Harbor Festival Day 2 in wonderful pictures

The rain may have been relentless in Bristol today, but that didn’t stop people flocking to Bristol Harborside to see the Harbor Festival – and have fun getting a little wet, it seems.

As a celebration of all things Bristol Harbourside, the three-day festival offers a range of entertainment, live music and tasty food and drink at various venues across the city – including a busy program of events on the water.

From people piling into cardboard boats in silly costumes to race each other across the water, to a mind-blowing flyboard display that reaches heights of 60ft in the air – check out our gallery below for some of the highlights from day two at Bristol’s Harbor Festival.
