SS Great Britain announces 'unique' summer gigs with some of the best views in the city

One of Bristol's most iconic attractions will double up as a gig venue with a difference. The SS Great Britain is bringing back its Summer Lates Series starting today (Thursday, June 15), opening after its usual hours to stage live music.

Visitors will be able to enjoy barbecued food, local beers and cocktails in the dockyard while also watching live bands. Organisers describe Brunel's ship as "Bristol's most unique gig location", and say there are twice as many dates this time compared to in 2022.

Phil Smith, chief operating officer at the SS Great Britain Trust, said: “Following last year’s success, we can’t wait to welcome even more locals for our Summer Lates. It’s an opportunity for Bristolians to relax and have fun at Brunel’s SS Great Britain after hours, seeing the ship in a whole new light.
