01 / Why Bristol is different
An independent city that notices who's local.
Bristol grew faster than any other English core city between 2011 and 2021. Many of its newer residents find places on their phones, through friends and on social media, long before they see an ad.
The city also has a strong independent streak. Gloucester Road is known for its long run of independent shops, and the harbour and Wapping Wharf are full of small operators. Brands that feel genuinely local tend to win here.
Content that feels like Bristol
People follow places that feel local. We build content around the moments the city already talks about, from match and gig nights at Ashton Gate, concerts at the Bristol Beacon, the Balloon Fiesta and summer on the harbourside. We also work with creators who know the area.
Bristol rewards brands with a point of view. Local suppliers, sustainability and the real people behind the counter all make strong content here.
