That is a shame as itโs something of a highlight of the year for me. But fair enough, of course. I can completely understand those involved in the huge organisation required wanting a year off every few years. It will be missed, but roll on โ20!

Well said that man, the funding always seems a bit of a struggle but let's hope it comes back bigger and better in 2020

I expect that my ladโs piece will go though, as thatโs outside the Hen and Chicken, but it has been up now for a year.

It was due to start on 30 May.
It was postponed due to the pandemic.
I am not aware of it having been rescheduled yet.
It couldnโt be this weekend as current rules wouldnโt allow such a gathering of people.

That merely refers to Choe being the current featured artist at the Upfest Gallery.
The gallery has been open since the easing of the lockdown.

I put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

Upfest โข Street Art Graffiti Festival , by verylittlehelps on Aug 29, 2020 20:01:31 GMT 1, Does anyone know if there are maps of current (probably created in previous years) Upfest artwork? I'm heading to Bristol in a couple of weeks and would be good to know where everything is/who did what.

Some walls have changed since the last one, I'm not sure of what maps are about but your best bet is just to head out there and roam the streets.

The last Upfest was two years ago, as last year was one of the breaks.
I can see if I still have the map if you wish.
However as GMA quite rightly says many of the wall have been painted over and many were temporary on boards. My sonโs piece lasted a year as it was on a wall at the Hen and Chicken, but was then painted over to make room for a new piece.
Tbh, I think you are best just checking out the general graf in Bristol rather than specifically seeking out Upfest pieces.
Iโd recommend Stokes Croft. But there are lots of other parts of Bristol. In fact driving into Bristol you realise that itโs gloriously flooded with it. I get a thrill every time I visit.
You could try reaching out to Bristolian members for recommendations.
If you specifically want to see whatโs left of Upfest two years ago, head to Bedminster. But I genuinely think you wonโt see as much as you could by visiting other areas.

Thanks. Shame not all the upfest wall stuff from 2 years ago is still there but understandable. Am planning on taking some strolls around the city and have a few key pieces to see in mind (Banksy, Stik, Annatomix, Lx7) will see what I find

Upfest โข Street Art Graffiti Festival , by GMA on Sept 1, 2020 14:10:10 GMT 1, I went out and about with a friend who visited the other weekend, it's worth checking out Stokes Croft on Gloucester Road, pop to Harbourside and city centre to check out any Banksy's you want to see, then head over to Dean Lane Skate Park which is at the bottom of North Street near the round about, great place to visit. From there, walk up North Street and check out the other walls. When are you getting here?
