Bristol Beer festival could be first major event in the city to go ahead in September
Bristol Craft Beer Festival has confirmed with Bristol City Council it can go ahead in September.
It will be the first major event rescheduled for summer in the city.
The festival is now going ahead on the 11th and 13th September at the Lloyd's Amphitheatre on the Harbourside.

A full COVID-19 risk assessment on the event layout, including different queuing systems, more entry and exit points.
All staff, exhibitors and volunteers will have specific training in order to keep the environment safe.
Staff will wear in PPE in areas such as door, glass handouts, some service areas and cleaning.
Increased, rigorous cleaning and sanitizing throughout, as well as more toilets and toilet attendants.
More hand washing stations throughout and sanitizer for each service point.
