Great night... just recovering now ! Good to catch up Pupster.

The show looked really good (and was very busy), it was a privilege to exhibit with all the other guys.

I even managed to get out and do a couple of stencils on the shutters... the best feedback I got was 'That is a really scary image!' ;D



My mate took a couple of photos on his phone that should show how busy it was.







I'll start a little thread in the new artists section showing all me circus pieces, any feedback, comments, abuse or love would be muchly appreciated.

Thanks to Logical1, Kim and all the Upfest team for organising everything ;D

[Joseph Loughborough]

Yea! Fantastic night! Really good to meet everybody and put some faces to names!
Many thanks to the organizers and artists for getting me on board and hope to meet ya all again soon!!

Press Release

Upfest’09 – The Urban Paint Festival
Saturday the 6th of June
South Bristol’s - Tobacco Factory, Grain Barge, Bridewell Police Station, North Street Garage, the View Art Gallery and Bristol Street locations.


The Urban Paint Festival returns to South Bristol on Saturday the 6th of June, with over 125 Contemporary Urban artists travelling from across the globe to take place in what is set to be the largest ‘live’ art event in Europe this year. Following the huge success of Upfest’08 the shows organisers have gone all out this year with the bold challenge of making it even bigger and broader than ever.

Upfest encourages a wide range of styles of urban art and this year will see an eclectic mix of exciting artists taking to the streets. Bristol, being known for its wide range of cultural and vibrant street art pieces, makes it a perfect venue as it has now embraced the art form as a way of life.

Once again the festival will raise awareness and support for the local charity with national coverage, NACOA (National Association of Children of Alcoholics), NACOA was founded to provide information, advice and support for children of alcohol dependent parents and people concerned for their welfare. There are almost a million children living with an alcohol dependent parent(s) in the UK today, many of them hiding their problems, living in fear and without support. NACOA offer this support through their free confidential helpline. Call for help on 0800 358 3456

Alongside the 12 hours of live painting, art sale, kids area, music and sunshine.... Upfest won’t be without its new additions to the show either, with give it a go art areas, big games, art and print stalls, urban dance nights and of course the human beat-boxers. Upfest is just £4 to attend all the locations throughout the day and you can be assured you will not find a finer collection of artists anywhere else this year. For up to date information please visit our website www.upfest.co.uk

See you all there,

The Upfest Team
