About

The Bristol Early Music Festival was founded in 2018 to encourage local early musicians and to give modern audiences the opportunity to hear performances of the vast repertoire of music from mediaeval to early baroque. The Festival is now a registered charity and firmly established as a regular feature of Bristol’s cultural life.

 

The Festival is held in All Saints Church, Clifton. We are deeply grateful to All Saints for the use of their premises and facilities and for their continuing support. We would love to see more students and young people participating in the Festival.

 

Every second year, the Festival runs for a full weekend of events, workshops, and displays. On the alternating years the Festival hosts a single one-day event: details of the 2025 day event will be available soon.

​

BEMF is delighted to be featured on the new Festivals Page of Continuo Connect, the go-to guide for early music.
