A event on Saturday 5th April. The event starts at 12:00.


Welcome to our Carnival, Bristol's birthplace of Spring! Let your imagination run wild and immerse yourself in a world where music, madness, and revelry blur the lines between the everyday and the extraordinary.

Rooted in ancient traditions of celebration and transformation, carnivals have long been a time for communities to mark the return of Spring with the imagination of new identities— whether as spirits, creatures, or forces of nature. Carnival is a space of liberation, where creativity reigns and the world is momentarily turned upside down.

On this special day at Bridge Farm, expect an eclectic mix of avant-garde live music, cabaret, workshops, food, drink, and DJs- setting the stage for an immersive and otherworldly experience. We’re thrilled to welcome DOGSHOW as a very special canine duo, bringing their signature blend of electronic chaos, theatrical performance, and driving beats to ignite your dancing shoes.

DRESSCODE: For this masquerade of madness you are invited to transform yourself into a Crazy Creature of the Wild! Don't worry if you're still in hibernation- there'll be opportunities to create elements of your costume throughout the day in some of our many workshops.

This Carnival is open to all creatures great and small, to all ages and imaginations- kids under 12 go free!
