Yard Fest transforms Underfall Yard into a vibrant hub of fantastic music, local creative traders and makers, and a celebration of maritime machinery and traditional skills. Taking place on 19th–20th July, this year marks its 9th edition, and this free-to-attend event promises to be the biggest yet.

Returning to the harbour once again is Sonic Sounds, with their dynamic rotation of DJs delivering genre-spanning global grooves. They'll be joined by a diverse line-up of live music acts from Bristol and beyond, creating an energetic soundtrack for the weekend.

This year also sees the return of the Underfall Market, featuring a wide array of well-known local traders as well as emerging talent. From woodcarving and ceramics to jewellery and photography, the market offers something for every creative taste, alongside a selection of delicious food stalls.

No visit to Underfall Yard would be complete without exploring its Victorian-era machinery and working heritage. Across both days, the Yard in Action event will give the public a rare behind-the-scenes look at the historic workshops and engineering marvels at the heart of the City Docks.
