Bristol Cathedral To Host Grand Iftar Multi Faith Event In March

Iftar matters a lot to Muslims. They break their fast at sunset during Ramadan. It is time with loved ones and community. Bristol Cathedral will host a Grand Iftar for the third year.

The cathedral partners with Muslims4Bristol. Bridges for Communities also helps. They welcome all faiths to share a meal.

It happens on Thursday, March 13. The theme this year is ‘Belonging and Togetherness’. Prayers will be held outside in a nearby place.

This Grand Iftar happens mid-Ramadan. Ramadan begins February 28 and ends March 30. The event is free for everyone. It lasts from 5 pm to 7:30 pm.

You must book tickets beforehand. Six tickets are the most per person. Show them when you arrive.

Bridges for Communities said sharing a meal helps. Listening to traditions starts conversations. You don’t need to agree on everything. It is not about changing your beliefs, it’s about building on common ground.

Another Grand Iftar may happen in Bristol. Grant Iftar on St Marks Road is vital. It started in 2017 after the Manchester bombing. It promotes peace and unity. Details are not available yet.
