Plans for huge new Christmas Village in Bristol's Castle Park with rink, rides and mulled wine bar

A new Christmas Village could take over the whole of Castle Park in Bristol for two months later this year.

Relevention, the organisers of Bristol’s Christmas Market in Broadmead, have applied to the council for a licence for the event. 

If approved, it will feature a large roller rink, curling, VR attractions, light installations, 3D mapping projections and a giant Christmas tree.

There will also be food and bar traders, including a mulled wine bar, alongside live entertainment and music. 

The plans include a dedicated ride arena with Christmas-themed rides and game stalls. 

The Christmas Village is set to run from November 14 until January 5, from 10am to 10pm daily.
