Plaster
Plaster is a communications agency based in Bristol, working with internationally acclaimed businesses. You may know their work as the marketing team for the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta or The Downs Festival, or seen their media work for Colston Hall and Encounters Film Festival, but this team has always had promoting Bristol right at its very heart.
When Upfest was still only 100 artists and a hidden gem within the city, the Plaster team worked with Steve and Emma to create a renowned, widely acclaimed and international event, which puts Bristol on the map year-on-year. This year the Plaster team were responsible for helping to open the reinvented Avon Gorge Hotel, which has grown in reputation to be one of the most exciting openings of 2018.

Bristol24/7 has worked with Plaster on a number of projects. As a founding member of the Better Business initiative, Plaster are keen to encourage Bristol businesses to work together to solve some of the city’s social problems, promote its amazing talent pool and showcase its event scene.
If you look at Plaster’s Instagram though, you might get a taste for another side to this very Bristolian business. With their teams flying all over the globe to work on their very successful tech and events divisions, their clients range from LG Electronics to Serious Stages (think the Glasto Pyramid Stage) and Playpass, an RFID business which is revolutionising the festival scene with cashless payments…
Our process will vary from client to client, but we’re a team of planners and doers that always strive to do the best that we can, tell the truth and make a difference for the people – and the fantastic city – we work in.
