The busiest months for family here are January, August, November and December, counting each month an event runs in.

What our Bristol guide says about those seasons:

Summer (June to August)

Harbourside terraces and boat trips are at their busiest. Wikivoyage's Bristol guide says major festivals are held in summer, so check organisers' sites for dates.

Autumn (September to November)

Quieter streets, woodland colour in Leigh Woods and a full programme at theatres and music venues.

Winter (December to February)

Days are short and can be wet. Museums, galleries, theatres and covered markets carry the itinerary.
