Bristol is the largest city in the South West and one of the ten 'Core Cities' in Great Britain. With a population of over 450,000 and two universities hosting over 50,000 students between them, Bristol is small enough to get around on foot, but big enough to boast a very vibrant creative and cultural community. Named as one of the coolest cities in the world by National Geographic and voted the best place to live in the 2017 Sunday Times guide, Bristol is a key regional media hub for BBC, ITV and Channel 4, and home to over 200 music, art and cultural venues, all putting on numerous events and shows every week - making Bristol a very lively and an exciting city to live in.
