It's Easter: what can I do in Bristol?

Are you staying in Bristol this year and still haven't plan your break? We have some ideas for you! Apparently, weather will be nice, warm and sunny at least this week so... enjoy it!

FRIDAY, 18th April

Starting on Friday until 26th April, Lady Boys of Bankok is back in Castle Park (read here last year's post) in their brand new circus-style show called "Red Hot Kisses". All tickets are 15 pounds the first Easter Bank Holiday (rest of days, from 19.50 pounds) and there are two sessions; 7pm and 9pm. Check website

Enjoy the night alfresco at The Big Chill Bar. Basically, they claim they have the finest disco, funk and boogie DJs around Bristol at the main room, and the best house and techno realms in their Alfresco Disco. Entry is free! Check website

SATURDAY, 19th April

The Illusions magic bar will host the Mad Hatters Magical Tea Party this Saturday. The entrance is free and you will be able to enjoy live music with Billy Driscroll and live magic tricks while drinking Long Island Iced Tea pitchers. And why not, join the staff and dress in Alice in Wonderland costumes! You can book a table if you are a bunch of you going to the tea party. Doors open at 7pm. If you miss it, the tea party will be repeated again on Sunday. Visit website

SUNDAY, 20th April

What about an afternoon tea trip to Beeses Tea Gardens? It is a trip that has been running since 1975! A Bristol Packet boat will take you at 2.05pm at the harbourside, bring you to Beeses Tea Garden for an afternoon tea for a couple of hours and return you to the harbourside at 5.50pm. Boat tickets cost 11 pounds (from the Watershed) and if you miss this trip, it runs again on Monday. Check website

For a more suitable plan for movie fans: The Film Club. Three movies will be showing from 3pm on in a big screen in The Golden Lion: Life Aquatic, Rushmore and Darjeeling Limited. Check Facebook page

MONDAY, 21st April

St George's Day Beer Festival will start on Monday at The Victoria (BS8 2BH) in Clifton to celebrate Patron Saint's day with around twenty ales and ciders from across England.  Check website
