After years being deprived of Bristol's summer favourites, this year all of the best-loved events have made a return. Coming back to some of the South West's favourite locations with stellar line-ups, they're better than ever.
There are festivals, open-air cinema events and more that are sure to be enjoyed. And one that will definitely peak the excitement of many is the return of Bristol Comedy Garden.
Bristol Comedy Garden has been hosted in Queen Square since its first edition in 2011, but last year moved to Clifton Downs. And while shows have previously taken place in a large tent, last year saw the comedians take to an open-air stage with the audience sat on chairs spread out on the green space, in line with social distancing guidelines.
