Bristol Harbour Festival
Client: Bristol City Council/Richmond Event Management
Audience: Families of all ages
The brief:
Curate and produce a staged programme of circus and street theatre performance and animate the surrounding areas with family-friendly entertainment and activities, for a weekend each summer, since 2003.
Challenges:
Working with a strict budget, we take responsibility for every element of the production management of our area of the festival, and bring our whole Bristol-based team to work at the festival, whatever the weather.
We invite a mix of local, national and sometimes international artists to the festival, using the opportunity to showcase some of own work to local audiences and offering a platform to emerging artists and young performance groups. One of the most popular areas of the Festival, with families setting up camp for the day.
Thank you and all your performers for helping to make this year's Harbour Festival such a great success. It exceeded my expectations, the months of hard work obviously paid off.
