The Queen's Baton Relay is set to pass through Bristol ahead of the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham this year. The relay will see the baton visit cities around England as well as other countries, before arriving in Birmingham for the opening ceremony of the games on July 28.
The tour is set to stop off in Bristol on July 5 and the event will be marked by a range of activities. The baton will visit the Empire Fighting Chance Charity at 11am, where the batonbearer will spar with local boxers, including former Commonwealth Champion and World Champion, Lee Haskins.
The baton will then head to St Agnes Park for 11.20am to meet with children from local schools. People who want to watch it pass through Bristol are encouraged to join the school children at the park.
