Nightlife in Bristol

Nightlife in Bristol is legendary. From its huge clubs hosting top DJs to underground live gigs, plus all manner of bars, glamorous speakeasies, comedy nights, magic and karaoke bars - this is a city that knows how to have fun. And then add to all this a thriving LGBT scene, with hubs in Old Market Quarter Gay Village and West End Gay Village.

Whether you're searching for somewhere offering the best hen nights any bride-to-be could wish for, or just for some fun things to do on a Friday night, Bristol's got you covered.

If music is your thing, you can take your pick from the nightclubs in Bristol, where you'll find sound systems a-banging with drum 'n' bass, dancehall and everything in between. And if you’re looking for something a little more low-key, maybe an acoustic set takes your fancy? Or a cider with friends on a boat bar? Or G&Ts for two in a quiet corner of a cosy pub? (Locally-concocted gins, of course) Whatever your tipple, you’ll find something you love here.

If you’re not sure where to start, try cobbled King Street – known for its microbreweries, historic inns and one mighty fine jazz pub. Students will love Park Street and The Triangle with their lively bars and late-night club nights. Then on Stokes Croft and Gloucester Road you can check out the city’s alternative scene. But don’t stop there, there’s much more to explore…

As an extra bonus, Bristol is also proud to have been awarded Purple Flag status on many of its famous districts, which shows that we meet or surpass the standards of excellence in managing the evening and night-time economy. For you, this means you can enjoy all the amazing nightlife in Bristol, in the knowledge that the city is striving to keep you as safe and comfortable as possible.
