First look at Bristol's new Christmas Village

Running until January 2, the event includes a roller rink, curling, a VR sleigh ride and more.

There are also food and drink options, including mulled wine and Yorkshire pudding wraps, along with plenty of photo opportunities.

The event has been organised by Relevention, the same team behind the Bristol Christmas Market, and was officially opened by Lord Mayor Andrew Varney in a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

It is open on weekdays from 2pm to 10pm and on from 10am to 10pm on weekends until December 20, when it will be open from 10am to 10pm, Monday through Sunday.
