Join museum archaeologists and a whole host of local societies, re-enactors, field archaeologists and heritage organisations to celebrate Bristol’s Brilliant Archaeology.
Throughout the day, there’ll be tours, demonstrations and displays in the museum and on the lawns outside. Blaise Castle and Blaise Community Gardens will also be open.
There’s plenty for mini archaeologists to do too with mini excavations, Iron Age coin hammering, weaving, pot-making, face painting and more.
This event is free and part of the national Festival of Archaeology, the UK’s biggest celebration of archaeology. It is made possible through sponsorship from the Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society and the support of The Friends of Bristol Museums, Galleries
