Party Venues for Hire in Bristol

Party Venues Hire Guide

Bristol’s historic and medieval centre, the Old City is a fantastic place to begin your search. Whether it be birthday parties, or hen and stag do’s, there are an abundance of open and flexible spaces that can also be hired privately. Most of these run parallel to the busy Anchor Road and are very easily accessed on foot or by bus. There’s also a nice variety of welcoming places lining the waterfront with Bristol’s many quays and harbours, which are ideal for summer parties. This includes whole venues and private rooms along Bordeaux Quay, as well as large function rooms on Museum Street and Prince Street. 

Outside the centre, Queens Road is situated next to the prestigious University of Bristol and houses some stellar event venues. With large galleries, adaptable function spaces, and classy balconies, there is a more luxurious vibe to these areas, making them ideal for drinks receptions, corporate events, or various concerts.

Similar venues can also be found in Broadmead, a shopping quarter next to Castle Park, where you can find more intimate halls, brasseries, and even a church. Suitable for more private gatherings, here you can host private dinners, baby showers, and more exclusive birthday parties.

How can I hire a cheap party venue in Bristol?

If you’re planning a party but don’t want to spend a fortune on it, there are many ways to get it done. Firstly, look for venues that operate on a minimum spend basis. This way, your guests will pay for their own drinks and snacks, and you won’t pay for the venue at all! You can also look for venues with a BYO policy. This option is a great way to save money on alcohol. A BYO venue will allow you to bring all the alcohol and drinks you need for your party instead of buying them at the venue. Select the “BYO alcohol allowed” filter to search only through venues with this policy. You can also book a venue on an off-peak date, as those dates usually have lower demand. Also, don’t be afraid to ask the venue for special deals and packages, as they may offer something that will help you lower the cost of your party.
