Bristol Blue Glass Factory & Shop shows off the famous glassworks that have been synonymous with the city of Bristol for the past four centuries.
Today, the skilled glass makers at Bristol Blue Glass Factory & Shop are continuing a time-honoured tradition at the thriving, working factory. You can visit these skilled craftsmen at their workshop in Brislington, South Bristol, where you can watch the glass being blown, spend time in the museum of glass, listen to fascinating commentaries and join in with exciting, hands-on activities.
There is no entrance fee and access is granted to all areas of the Bristol Blue Glass Factory & Shop. Glass blowing demonstrations take place daily, where you can see this traditional skill in action from the public viewing gallery, and there are tours and evening displays, too. The shop also features the widest selection of Bristol glass available to buy anywhere in the South West. You can even blow your own bubble for just £5.00.
