ST JAMES FAIR - 10TH SEPTEMBER

Jul 27 2016

This event will be running on the same day as DOORS OPEN DAY.

St James Fair was an extremely important annual social and commercial event for Bristol under the patronage of St James Priory. It was one of the biggest Fairs in Medieval England but was closed down in 1837.

This year we are running a commemorative Fair and entrance for visitors will be free. There will be a charge for Stallholders and Commercial Organisations. The St James Parks will be used ad the Priory Church will be open for music and tours alongside Doors Open Day.

To book a stall or a commercial pitch please contact 0117 9299100 or email :

Mass is celebrated every Sunday at 8am.

There is no priest attached to St James Priory so a priest from St Mary on the Quay celebrates Mass every Sunday at 8am.
