Bristol is a fantastic location for business events, offering a plethora of historic and unique venues, as well as major hotel brands and purpose-built conference facilities.
A multi-cultural city with a population of 459,000, Bristol has two top Universities (The University of Bristol and The University of the West of England) that feed into Bristol’s thriving industries. Key economic sector strengths for the region are Aerospace & Engineering, High-Tech, Energy, Creative & Digital and Business & Professional Services.
The city is constantly evolving and improving its infrastructure and there are many exciting opportunities for event planners with the upcoming YTL Bristol Arena and the Ashton Gate Sports and Convention Centre development.
The city is one of the UK’s best destinations for conferences, offering easy access to international delegates through Bristol Airport’s excellent route network and via train from most major UK cities.
