Record Store Day is almost upon us - a time marked in the calendar to shine a spotlight on the role of independent record stores in Bristol. The event celebrates the culture of more than 250 independent record stores across the UK and is always a busy time as thousands rush out to take advantage of special and exclusive vinyl releases.

Record Store Day was established in 2007 during a gathering of independent record store owners, followed by its first official event in April 2008. Record stores can also mark the occasion by hosting live artist performances and meet-ups.
