Bristol City Swing

🎉 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗦𝗙 = 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗿, 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 & 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲!

We’ve got one theme - ‘Colour Party’ at BSF this year and we’re saving it for Sunday.

After awards, it’s time to celebrate our final day the Bristol way. Colour is a huge part of our city and music is woven into Bristol’s culture, so we’re bringing both to the fiesta ✨

🎶 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 in the main ballroom with tunes played by our fab DJs!

🎸 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰! Grab a drink, catch up with your bestie and enjoy the live music.

Face painting was SO popular last year that we’ve doubled down. Come and find our two artists:

- and yes, Yvette is a Westie!
