Bristol Doors Open Day 2010 - Saturday 11th September

Bristol Doors Open Day – now in its seventeenth year – is the day when many of Bristol’s significant contemporary and historic buildings open their doors to the general public.

Entry to all buildings is completely free.

All buildings will be open Saturday 10am-4pm unless otherwise stated. In addition, all the city museums will be open until 5pm.

For a few buildings you need to pre-book to go round and will be turned away if you haven’t. Others offer regular tours with no pre-booking. Please check the individual entries for details.

Many of the venues are within walking distance from the centre of the city; all venues outside of the centre show the bus routes that serve them; whilst some of the more distant ones also have a special free bus to them on the day or you could cycle (see the travel section of this site for more details).

For any queries, the Tourist Information Centre has a special Doors Open Day line on 0333 321 0101 or e-mail them on
