2024 Partners
Coffee Club
This year we’re delighted to be partnering with Coffee Club, who have been putting on some of Bristol’s best alternative gigs since 2013 and serving the coffee on the Bristol Marina since 2020.
Formerly known as ‘Imagine That’, Lucy and Dan created Coffee Club to bring people together, be it for a coffee in the sunshine or at a local gig night. Great songs have been written over coffee, great ideas have been inspired by live music.
Bristol Beer Factory
Bristol Beer Factory has been creating waves in the UK craft brewing scene since 2004, pioneering independent beer in Bristol and beyond. A passion for cask forged their place on the UK brewing map.
Always pushing forwards, they are constantly evolving; from the modern hop dreamlands of Laser Juice to the best-selling and critically acclaimed Clear Head, an epic alcohol-free IPA.
“WE BREW TO UNITE PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES OVER WORLD-CLASS BEER. Inspiring people to demand and drink progressive, independent beer and to make you feel proud of your city and community.”

There is one set price for these events. Our Summer Lates Series is aimed at adults although children are most welcome and those 3 years and under can attend for free.

As we are a museum with historic objects and areas needing to be preserved, we can only allow trained assistance dogs onto our main site.
How do I get my pre-ordered food and drinks?
If you have pre-ordered food or drinks with your tickets, you will be given vouchers on the door when you arrive which can be redeemed at the bar or BBQ.

Smoking and vaping are prohibited everywhere on site, including outdoor areas. If you wish to smoke or vape you must leave the premises and you will be granted re-entry with your ticket.
