Exhibition · Bristol

Bristol's biennial photography festival returns with its most ambitious edition yet — international artists across the city's best museums and independent spaces, all free.
Opening week (14–18 Oct) is the moment to catch talks and previews, but the whole programme runs into 2027, so there's no rush.
