The much-anticipated sculpture trail is officially open to the public until August 31.

The trail features 53 stunning sculptures including the iconic duo Wallace & Gromit alongside the infamous Feathers McGraw, Shaun the Sheep and the newest member to the cast - Norbot.

Guests can download the Gromit Unleashed 3 App to track all the sculptures and tick them off their list for £2.75 on Google Play Store and Apple Store.

All money raised will be going to the Grand Appeal, the Bristol Children’s Hospital Charity and Cots for Tots, the dedicated charity for the Neonatal Intensive Care Ward at St Michael’s Hospital.

The overall map has been divided into Minitrails.

I decided to tackle the Harbourside Trail and had a blast!

Transcript
00:00The long-anticipated Grommer Leash Free opened its doors at the end of June.
00:05The trail features over 50 different sculptures, including the iconic duo Wallace and Gromit.
00:11The sculpture trail has been divided into some mini trails.
00:15Join us today as we tackle the Hub Sight Trail, starting with the newest member to the cast, Nobot.
00:23We're using the official Grommer Leash App to track all the sculptures.
00:36Right now we've just seen Feathers Must Grow as the king of diamonds.
00:42The good thing about the app is that each sculpture has a unique code which you're able to lock in.
00:50So you can keep track of which ones you've seen.
00:53So if we go, oops, home, enter code, and that shall unlock a new sculpture.
01:04And just outside of M Shed you can find Filio's dog.
01:08It's inspired by around the world in 80 days, but with a Bristolian twist, can you spot all of the 80 modes of transport?
01:16And just outside of the admin studios, we're seeing two sculptures instead of one, which is only for a limited time.
01:26Since Oceana has been moved here to keep us safe during the Harbour Festival as partaking in the trail.
01:33But after the weekend, she'll be moved back to her usual spot on the map.
01:38By the Underfull Yard Cafe, you'll be finding Nobot as the Jolly Roger.
01:47Giving a nod to the Bristol's pirate history.
01:51And just outside of Handleaf's Lansing is Rooster Booster, a design by admins Peter Lord,
02:00which combines a design for a wallace with a chicken run.
02:05And we'll be finishing off today's trail next to the Robin Hood Prince of Cheese at College Green.
02:32There's one last trail, one last sculpture left of the trail.
02:36But unfortunately it's out with The Curious, which is close at this hour.
02:40So let's pop again tomorrow and finish off the trail.
02:43It's a new day and it's the final sculpture in the trail.
02:46The astro known by Wallace and Gromit's creator Nick Park.
02:51This sculpture is inspired by Wallace and Gromit, A Grand Day Out.
02:55And that was the final sculpture of the trail.
02:58The fact that the art divided the map into new trails
03:01to make it a lot more feasible to carry out the Gromit and El Nish sculpture trail.
03:07Thank you for joining us for the Halfside Trail.
