Unless you’ve had your head in the sand over the past few days, you’ll have noticed dozens of unicorns have appeared across Bristol, mainly in the city centre.
With all different colours and patterns, the sculptures have been installed as part of UnicornFest to raise money for Leukaemia Care charity, and there are more than 50 in the city.
And so with the sun out, we decided to put cap and sunglasses on and see how many we can search out (using the UnicornFest app) in under three hours, starting in St Werburghs.
First stop was IKEA where I found the first unicorn of the day - Lunacorn - and a few unicorn foals painted by schools outside the entrance. I scanned the unicorn’s QR code on the Unicornfest which unlocked a cute animation of a vinyl unicorn doll in a box with Lunacorn’s name.
Next stop was inside the store where I came across the Attic Treasure unicorn before continuing my journey to the Memorial Stadium before completing a few stops on Gloucester Road and surrounding streets.
I then went through the city centre where a large cluster of unicorns live, before heading to Brandon Hill, Anchor Road, Redcliffe Way, Temple Meads and the Trinity Centre.
I met a lot of people from different age ranges, including families with grandparents, children and their parents and solo adventurers searching for unicorns.
Here are the 26 unicorns I discovered along the trail:
21. Butterfly Concerto by Cheba
Butterfly Concerto can be found by Mary Redcliffe Church. The design features multicoloured abstract butterflies and vibrant abstract slower shaped brushstrokes, with a glittery glimmer. | Adriana Amor
22. Faces of the City by Jasmine Thompson
Faces of the City is sponsored by Redcliffe and Temple BID/DeskLodge and can be found in front of DeskLodge. The design celebrates the diverse communities in Bristol and features some key landmarks and imagery at the heart of Bristol, like the harbour on a sunny day and the Bristol Balloon Fiesta. | Adriana Amor

Time Travelling Odyssey 2187 is sponsored by Severnside Rail Partnership and can be found by Temple Meads Station. The piece uses a combination of spray paint and vinyl wrap. | Adriana Amor
24. Glow With The Flow by Hazard One
Glow With The Flow is sponsored by Purplefishand and can be found next to the Knights of Templar JD Wetherspoons.
