Bristol in pictures: Pictures from across the city this week

The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta is almost here and the event has officially launched with a special rise in mass from College Green this week.

Elsewhere in the city, graduation season continued with some inspiring stories emerging from the University of Bristol and there were some bingo sessions with a difference at Motion.

New light shows, live music on the SS Great Britain and giant inflatables – it’s all in our weekly gallery.
