Along with the stalls, visitors to the festival can also enjoy a range of workshops and activities designed for them to get involved in, making it the perfect choice of Mother’s Day destination if you’re bringing along small children. The festival is on from 25-26 March.

Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm

If you’re looking for something interesting to do as a whole family in Bristol to celebrate Mother’s Day, then look no further than Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm. Families can all come along and enjoy an exclusive ‘meet the mums’ breakfast tea party at the zoo, where you’ll be able to get up close and personal with some of the primate mums and babies, along with learning from the keepers about how the mums look after their young.

Harbour Trip

Moored outside the MShed, The Matthew is one of Bristol’s star attractions. It is offering an hour-long harbour trip for anyone who wants to give their mum a real treat this March. The Matthew is unlike most boats that you’ll find today – it’s a fantastic reconstruction of the same boat that was used to discover Newfoundland in 1497 by John Cabot! Whether you – or your mum – is a fan of history or not, this is an excellent, unique activity to take part in on Mother’s Day that the whole family can enjoy.
