Bristol is a powerhouse of creative talent, and at Bristol Beacon we’ve been proud to play host to so many creative icons throughout our long history. Now, we’re delighted to be partnering with one of Bristol’s most cherished and globally renowned creative institutions, Aardman.
2026 marks Aardman’s 50th anniversary year, and we are thrilled that they have chosen to support Bristol Beacon as a corporate partner as part of this celebratory milestone.
Both Aardman and the Beacon are pillars of Bristol’s creative community with a shared goal of bringing people together through art and culture. That’s why we’re thrilled to be partnering with the Beacon in our 50th anniversary year, as we celebrate the studio’s legacy and commitment to supporting the city’s creative scene.”
Sean Clarke, Managing Director at Aardman
Aardman’s award-winning storytelling, unforgettable characters and commitment to creative education have, for 50 years, shone a bright spotlight on Bristol’s imagination and collaborative spirit. As a corporate partner, Aardman will be supporting the city’s creative talent like our Resident Artists, and through our music education programmes.
We’re proud to be partnering with another home-grown institution with a shared belief in the power of creativity to inspire, uplift and connect people.
Huge thanks to the team at Aardman for their support.
