News, events and schools' information for families across Bristol

Come From Away will reach the Bristol Hippodrome Tue 20 – Sat 31 Aug. The smash hit show shares the incredible real-life story of the 7,000 air passengers from all over the world who were grounded in Canada during the wake of 9/11, and the small Newfoundland community that invited these ‘come from aways’ into their lives with open hearts.

This beautiful musical encourages acts of kindness and that’s why the theatre and the producers of Come From Away have partnered up to help the community by running a food drive for South & East Bristol Foodbank.

The Bristol Hippodrome will host a food drive from Tue 20 – Sat 31 Aug. Staff will be participating and patrons attending the show will also be encouraged to donate.

A donation spot will be set up within the theatre’s Box Office. Patrons attending the theatre will have the chance to drop their donations off before seeing the show (the Box Office is open 90 minutes before the show begins). Anyone not seeing the show is also welcome to make a donation during the Box Office opening times.

Come From Away is at the Bristol Hippodrome Tue 20 – Sat 31 Aug. For tickets, visit www.atgtickets.com/shows/hamilton/bristol-hippodrome/
