Big Chill to open bar in Bristol
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 10 July 2009
The Big Chill people have announced they will launch a new bar in Bristol this Autumn, bringing the Big Chill vibe to the city all year round. The festival people have operated two year round venues in London for a while, of course, the Big Chill Bar and Big Chill House.
The new venue will be headed up by two local promoters, Dave Smeaton and James Savage. The former told CMU: “The Big Chill’s mix of music, art and great food will be welcomed in a city which has always embraced all of these things in a big way. Now all the many Bristol Big Chillers can get a small piece of the festival every day for free!”
Confirming the new venture, Big Chill founder Katrina Larkin added: “It’s not a new home for Big Chill really, it’s more providing a roof for the many Big Chill artists and chillers from Bristol all year round. Plus it’s a lot closer for us than the London bars after a hard day in our festival fields”.
The Bristol Big Chill venture is due to open in October.
