We’re pleased to announce that the Bristol Community Festival is returning from 6–13 June 2026, with a week of community‑led events across the city and a final celebration at City Hall on Saturday 13 June.

This year’s festival will shine a light on the people, groups and volunteers whose everyday social action strengthens Bristol. Throughout the week, we’ll be celebrating connection, belonging and the shared experiences that help build community cohesion and highlight the creative ways groups bring people together, create welcoming spaces and support relationships across the city.

Can Do Bristol will once again act as the festival hub, hosting the full programme of events and making it easier for residents, volunteers and community groups to get involved.

Community organisations or resident-led groups were invited to apply for 18 grants of up to £500 to contribute towards the costs of hosting an event during the festival, plus an extra £150 for accessibility related expenditure.

These grants were available to groups working in and with the top 30% most deprived areas in Bristol and citywide equalities communities.

Grant applications and self-funded event applications have now closed. 

If you’re interested in attending events during the festival in the future, subscribe to the Bristol Community Festival email list for updates.
