Clifton Suspension Bridge
The closest major centre to London and the gateway to South West England, Bristol combines the conveniences and accessibility of a modern city with proximity to some of the UK’s prettiest countryside. Destination Bristol offers a free service to help event organisers choose from the area’s spectrum of venues, which runs from international hotels and purpose-built conference centres to independent boutique properties. Conference capacities reach up to 1,800 in the city centre while receptions can be held at quirkier venues like the Planetarium and Bristol Zoo. Out of town, the University of the West of England is particularly proud of its 4,000sq m exhibition and conference centre. As the UK’s ‘Green Capital’, Bristol and its venues are particularly hot on sustainability. Two railway stations, an airport and close proximity to the M4 and M5 make it easy for delegates to get in and out from across the country.
