One month to go: How Bristol Legends will spotlight Bristol’s leading voices
There is just one month left to go until Bristol24/7’s inaugural Bristol Legends awards, a new city-wide initiative celebrating the individuals and organisations shaping Bristol’s economic, cultural and social landscape.
The flagship awards ceremony takes place at Ashton Gate stadium on March 6, beginning at 6pm.
We are expecting 750 guests to attend the night, representing a cross-section of Bristol’s varied business community and beyond including some of the cities leaders, innovators and trailblazers. The awards aim to recognise both established organisations and emerging talents contributing to the city’s growth and resilience.
Comedian and broadcaster Jayde Adams will host the ceremony, which will also feature performances from the Invisible Circus and a three-course dinner curated by legendary chef Josh Eggleton alongside a team of leading local chefs.
Bristol Legends will represent numerous fantastic organisations and businesses
Since October 2025, Bristol24/7 has been working with 48 expert panellists and collecting more than 1,600 public nominations to identify the people, businesses and community groups making a measurable impact across the city.
In doing so, we hope to reflect and amplify our ongoing commitment to spotlighting leadership, innovation and social value across sectors.

A first-of-its-kind awards event for the city, the evening will convene leaders from business, sustainability, culture, hospitality, grassroots community initiatives and the creative industries in a celebration of the wonderful people that make Bristol a thriving, forward-thinking place to be.
Bristol24/7 will spotlight these legendary businesses, groups and initiatives both on the night and through tailor-made documentaries and coverage on all of our media channels.
Proceeds from the event will support Bristol24/7’s independent journalism and wider social impact initiatives, as well as Anti Banquet’s work tackling food insecurity across the city.
