Bristol Transformed is back for its seventh year! 

Bristol’s leading festival of radical politics, arts and culture will return on Easter weekend (4-5 April) at the Trinity Centre. There’ll be workshops, panels and activities covering a whole range of left politics. Come along to learn about practice, theory, and how we can all get involved to transform ourselves, Bristol, and the world!

-100 years on from the 1926 General Strike in the UK - how did it get organised, who took part and what can we learn

-Organising for Palestine - discussing revolutionary praxis with the Bristol Apartheid Free Zone

-Should we all join the Greens? Or should we make Your Party Our party? Untangling the puzzle of the left parties in Britain

-Comrade Delta - A conversation with David Renton about his new book and what the left can learn about the scandals and failures of the SWP, the largest far left party in Britain

-How to radicalise your union? Ideas and approaches to building power and class solidarity in local branches

-Socialist Housing - how can we fight for more and better social housing and take a step towards destroying landlordism in the UK’s third most expensive city to rent in.

As always, we will have you covered for free childcare all weekend, courtesy of our Childcare Caucus - included in the cost of a ticket! 

All under 16s get in free to the festival. Unfortunately we are no longer able to run the planned young people's programme, but young people are welcome to attend any part of the daytime festival programme! There are several sessions perfect for younger comrades, such as screen printing and protest song workshops.

Solidarity with Palestine

This vital campaign - the Bristol Apartheid-Free Zone - was announced at the closing session of our 2024 festival. Thousands of local people are supporting Palestinian liberation by organising a boycott of Israeli goods across Bristol. 

You can sign up here to build the campaign. Solidarity is an action.
