Win a Harbour Festival getaway in Bristol

From Friday 17 July to Sunday 19 July 2026, Bristol Harbour Festival lights up the floating harbour with live music, circus performances, family entertainment and water adventures. One lucky winner and a guest are invited to join the celebration for a weekend that blends music, scenery and harbour energy into a bright, unforgettable escape.

The prize package brings you right to the heart of the action. Two VIP tickets to the Bristol Harbour Festival put you in the best seats in the house, with excellent views of the Harbour View Stage and Water Arena, exclusive bar access and a touch of festival luxury. Your weekend then includes a one-night bed and breakfast stay at The Bristol Hotel on Friday 17 July, a waterfront morning start and easy access to the harbourfront vibe. To toast the start of the celebrations, you and your companion will enjoy cocktails for two at Rick's Bristol on the same evening, soaking up the ambience of a harbour-side bar with stylish flair.

Adventure continues with a guided kayak or stand-up paddleboarding session with SUP Bristol on either 17 or 18 July, letting you skim the waves and see Bristol’s Floating Harbour from a fresh perspective. After a day on the water, relax with a meal at Harbour House Bristol on Saturday 18 July, tasting the harbour’s flavours while you soak up the scenic views of the waterfront.
