Festival of Nature returns in June with nine days of free events
The Festival of Nature has just released this summer’s programme and this year, it’s all about water. And, to really make a splash, the centrepiece of the packed nine-day festival will be a living, breathing pop-up wetland brought to life, right in the centre of Bristol.

The UK’s biggest free nature festival returns from 7–15 June across Bristol, Bath and nearby communities, finishing with a huge weekend in Millennium Square, featuring live music, parades, stalls, workshops and screening – and a real wetland to explore.
