In photos: Bristol Harbour Festival 2017

By Bristol24/7  Monday Jul 24, 2017

It began on Friday night with a huge gig by The Outlook Orchestra on the Lloyds Amphitheatre celebrating the 150th birthday of the Colston Hall and ended with a flotilla of boats accompanying the Bristol Ensemble performing Handel’s Water Music on board the Tower Belle.

In between, this year’s Bristol Harbour Festival featured more than three miles of entertainment.

Here are just a few highlights:
