Bristol

Many of the venues at Bristol are in historic locations like the Georgian mansions in Clifton or the dramatic neo-gothic Great Hall in the Wills Memorial Building. There are plenty of venues available in contemporary buildings too and, as you’d expect of a leading University, all sites offer comprehensive access to modern facilities.
