About This Event

The Bristol Light Festival returns for ten days from Thursday 18 February, lighting up locations across the city centre with a programme of large-scale installations and projections. The event coincides with the final weekend of the February half-term, offering a free outdoor gallery that transforms public spaces, buildings and landmarks after dark. This year’s edition features works by a range of artists, with pieces designed to be walked between, encouraging visitors to explore the city on foot. Organised by the Bristol Business Improvement District, the festival aims to draw both residents and visitors into the city’s streets and squares. Full details of installations and opening times are available on the festival website.
