October 2024The newly renovated Bristol Beacon was well worth the wait, what a beautiful venue! I have come here twice for two totally different events, one for a concert and the other for a movie. Both were fantastic.

December 2024I recently attended my wife's graduation ceremony at Bristol Beacon Hall, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was filled with excitement and pride. The venue itself is impressive, with a spacious layout that accommodated the large number of guests comfortably. The seating was comfortable, allowing us to enjoy the ceremony without feeling cramped. The acoustics in the hall were excellent, making it easy to hear every speech and announcement clearly, which is crucial during such an important event. The stage was beautifully set up, and the overall ambiance added a special touch to the ceremony. The staff at Bristol Beacon Hall were friendly and helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly. They were attentive to our needs and made us feel welcomed. Additionally, the location is quite accessible, with good parking options nearby and convenient access to public transport. Overall, our experience at Bristol Beacon Hall for my wife's graduation was truly special. I would highly recommend this venue for any significant event. It played a big part in making the day memorable for all of us!

October 2024What a wonderful venue. Firstly, there is a multi-level car park opposite with eight EV charging stations on level 1. See the website for prices, but we paid £7•50 for approx 3 hrs + The venue entrance is quite spacious (see photo) with a cloakroom (we paid £1 for two coats), information centre, large staircase, lifts, large bar with seating area, and good clean toilet facilities. The auditorium is small to medium-sized, which gives good viewing to the stage. Good comfortable seating with removable covers (for cleaning). A most enjoyable day, thank you

December 2024The Bristol beacon is beautiful and size very comfortable to watch a show. The shame is rain floor toilets are a mess and dirty if they could sort out the hygiene in Toilets it would be fantastic in the ladies I’m not sure about the gents and the only problem is as well Just at the end before we were leaving to exit the building I wanted to pop to the toilet and they’ve been locked up, I was not willing to go up another floor with several hundred people coming down just go to the toilet. if they could iron out the problems.
