Millennium Square
Public square with fountains and art
Millennium Square is a modern and vibrant public plaza at the heart of the Harbourside, known for its interactive water features and impressive sculptures of local figures like Cary Grant.
The square is dominated by a huge outdoor screen and the gleaming silver sphere of the Planetarium, part of the nearby We The Curious science centre.
During the summer, children play in the shallow fountains and the "solar-powered trees" provide shade, while in the winter, the space often transforms into a festive ice rink and market.
With its sleek architecture, numerous surrounding bars and restaurants, and frequent public broadcasts, it is a high-energy hub of contemporary Bristol life.
