The team organising WordCamp Bristol\u00a0are both delighted and proud that Bristol has been named the best place to live in Britain<\/a> in the Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide.<\/p>\n Helen Davies, home editor at Sunday Times said: “The city is a worthy winner thanks to its ideal combination of extraordinary culture, impressive schools, buzzing culinary scene, exciting redevelopment and community spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n “We sum the city up as cool, classy and supremely creative.”<\/p>\n An excellent city for both work and play, the guide explains that Bristol has “glamorous, creative, hi-tech and professional” careers available, offers a thriving selection of food and drink, and \u201ccrams in all the culture you could wish for\u201d.<\/p>\n Mayor of Bristol, Marvin Rees, noted that cultural diversity and an independent spirit are at the core of what makes Bristol special.<\/p>\n Culture, community spirit and jobs are just three of a range of factors that are assessed in order to compile the top locations in the annual guide.<\/p>\n Of course, many of\u00a0the things that make Bristol a great place to live also make Bristol a great place to visit. In fact Bristol is named fourth on the list of the Rough Guide’s 10 Best Cities to Visit 2017<\/a>.<\/p>\n So what better reason is there than to plan a\u00a0visit to Bristol?<\/p>\n WordCamp Bristol is happening in the middle of May, just as the weather is starting to get nicer and the city is looking at it’s very best. It’s a great time to visit so why not extend your stay for a day or two \u00a0to absorb the culture, see the sights (we have a bridge, don’t you know?!), and enjoy a drink or a meal al fresco with a harbour-side view.<\/p>\n There are still tickets available <\/a>for WordCamp Bristol on the weekend of 13-14 May 2017.<\/p>\n Join us to experience this great city alongside our WordPress community.<\/p>\n [Photo via Visualhunt.com<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The team organising WordCamp Bristol\u00a0are both delighted and proud that Bristol has been named the best place to live in Britain in the Sunday Times Best Places to Live guide.
