Amphitheatre will be stage of a scary festival

THE city's Harbourside is set to be transformed for a spooky Halloween festival.

The Bristol Day of the Dead Festival will bring together a host of activities and performances in the aim of raising money for charity.

Taking a lead from the Day of the Dead festivals in Mexico, the event will host an array of stalls and stages as Halloween is celebrated in Bristol style.

Organisers have booked salsa and flamenco performances, mariachi bands and there will even be a zombie roller disco. Visitors can also expect regular Halloween activities like apple bobbing, pumpkin carving competitions and fancy dress.
