Bristol
Bristol is one of the most innovative, diverse and welcoming cities in the UK. As a hotbed of music, film, animation and game development artistry, it’s also an epicentre of the creative industries. With a thriving independent art scene, some of the best venues in the country and the likes of Massive Attack, Roni Size, Idles and Heavy Lungs calling the city home, there’s no wonder Bristol draws in so many creative minds. So, where better for a dBs Institute campus!?
