Upfest Comes to Cabot Circus

Work from internally renown artists can be seen in progress

It’s just a few shorts weeks until the hugely popular Upfest returns. The event sees brand new murals pop up across South Bristol.

Alongside artists working on both familiar and new walls for the first time, there will be a range of events including workshops, discussions, talks and child and family events.

Currently, some brand new murals are being painted on Quakers Lane in Cabot Circus.

There are five artists creating new work which will see a series of large murals complimenting Dave Bain’s much-loved Aardman one.

The work from Inkie, Melo, Insane51, My Dog Sighs and HazardOne can currently be seen in progress.

Upfest runs from Friday 15 May to Sunday 31 May 2026
