Europe's largest street art festival is planning to be 'bigger and better than ever before' in 2022 to mark its 15 year anniversary. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Upfest took place in alternative ways for the past two years however for 2022 it's back in full swing.
The festival promises to return its traditional format with an additional twist. Fans the festival can expect to see incredible murals emerging in the streets of Bedminster from street art’s freshest talents from May 5 onwards.
Then, following three weeks of street painting, the festival weekend will see hundreds of artists painting live with festival hubs at the Tobacco Factory and Ashton Gate Stadium. This year Upfest will use Greville Smyth Park as its main venue for the first time, with music and live painting to be enjoyed at the green space across the weekend.
