00:00So, as ever, there is always so much to do in the City of Bristol and with the spring in full swing and summer approaching, there's even more to do.
00:10So, one of the first things that people are looking forward to is Brighton's biggest vintage sale that is coming to the City of Bristol at the paintwork.
00:20So, yeah, tell me about that.
00:21Yeah, that's right. Brighton's biggest vintage clothing retailer will be bringing its fantastic vintage kilo sale for the first time to Bristol.
00:30Oh, that will be lovely. Bristol as a city has so many options when it comes to kind of the secondhand clothing scene.
00:38So, with the lovely weather comes a lot of people enjoying getting out and about and going on walks and runs around the city.
00:45So, Bristol's Walkfest is going on. Tell me about that.
00:49Yes, that's right. Bristol's Walkfest is back again throughout the month of May, taking place across the city with walks for all ages, abilities and different distances.
01:01The event ranges from self-guided tours like the Go Jaunt Lee self-led tour to taster sessions like Tri-Nordic Walking in Eastfield Park and even guided tours like Blackbeard to Banksy, the Ultimate Guide to Bristol.
01:16Oh, that is a nice one, especially when the weather's as nice as it has been recently.
01:22There's so many places to walk around and see in the city.
01:26So, another one that comes every year to Bristol and has become very integral to Bristol's festival series is Love Saves the Day.
01:36It's one that's been going on for years and has featured loads of really amazing DJs and performers, be that kind of musicians or dancers and lots of creatives.
01:50So, tell me a little bit about Love Saves the Day this year.
01:53Right. So, Love Saves the Day is back again for the May Bank Holiday Weekend at Ashton Court.
02:02It will be taking place on May 24th and 25th.
02:05The event will bring some of the most exciting DJs and live performances from across the country, including Over Mono, Near Archives, Scream and Benga.
02:15Oh, that is an exciting one. And it's always an integral part of Bristol's festival line-up.
02:21So, hopefully the weather holds for it again this year.
02:24So, keeping on the festival theme, should we talk about Dot to Dot? Tell me about that.
02:29So, it's another one for music lovers.
