All students welcome!

Come and see us at our Open Event on Saturday 13 June 2026 which is taking place across our College Green Centre, South Bristol Skills Academy, Parkway Centre and Ashley Down Centre!

Open Events are your chance to come to college and discover our incredible facilities for yourself. You’ll have the chance to find out more about our courses and the opportunity to meet staff and talk to us about your next steps.

To ensure that you get the most out of your experience at our Open Event, we kindly ask that you choose to visit the centre where the course/s that you are interested in are delivered.

For our busier sites (CG & SBSA), we have staggered arrival times to help reduce waiting times. Please book a time slot that you plan to arrive.

(If the Eventbrite tickets are sold out for your chosen centre; please still feel free to come along as we reserve spaces for walk-ins. We would love to welcome you to City of Bristol College!)
