Now in its seventh year, The Bristol Pop-Up Shop returns to the Galleries Shopping centre in Bristol for the 2024 festive season. The shop will be bursting with gifts from 100 talented local makers, artists and designers and is open everyday until Christmas Eve. Come and find them for all the local, handmade joy this festive time.

Their mission is to offer an exciting, unique shopping experience that truly makes a difference to both the local businesses they bring together and the customers who buy from them. They aim to connect and boost Bristol’s small creative business community, with a Pop-Up retail outlet that supports the local economy.

They love the creativity of their community and are so proud of the work being made around them. This year they’ll be stocking another incredible line up of amazingly talented local businesses, including:

 

• Mild to wild hot sauces and chilli jams from Somerset Chilli Garden. Delicious gifts for foodie friends and those who love to add a bit of spice to their kitchen creations.

• Dixon Does Doodles doesn’t take life too seriously, who else could have brought us doodles of Robot lasers attacking the suspension bridge, Brunel in the bath or Zombie Cow butter dishes? Humorous and outlandish, perfect for lighthearted presents.

• Joining them for the second time this Christmas is emerging linocut artist Chiara Mensa. Enjoying noticing the details in nature and her surroundings, Chiara’s work is simply beautiful, a must see.

• Colourful, joyful handmade clothing from slow fashion brand Hello Cleo. Beautifully and meticulously made, Sabina creates colourful clothes and accessories from sustainably sourced fabrics.

Customers can shop 7 days a week for all their gifts and Christmas treats from a huge range of products by some of Bristol’s best creative businesses. From luxury gifts for someone special, to fun and creative stocking fillers, you’ll find something for everyone on your Christmas shopping list.

The Bristol Pop-Up Shop is led by a collective of 7 women, who all run their own small businesses and are driven to support the local creative economy. Every penny spent in the shop helps Bristol’s indies to thrive.

Bristol Pop-Up Shop open 10am – 6pm Monday to Saturdays and 11am – 5pm on Sundays
