“This is more than just a bar – it’s a statement of collaboration and pride in what Bristol can produce,” said Harry Feigen, Director at Proud Events. “Bristol’s breweries are some of the most exciting in the UK and having them work together in the heart of the festival feels like a real moment for the city.
Somerset’s own Thatchers Cider will also return as a key festival partner, continuing their support for West Country culture with the launch of a new competition. Two winners will enjoy a serene hot air balloon flight in the cider makers’ iconic yellow and green balloon, soaring above the harbour for what promises to be one of the weekend’s most unforgettable visual moments. The activation underlines Thatchers Cider’s long-standing connection to the region and its bold approach to championing local life. Those keen to enter should head to the Bristol Harbour Festival social channels.
