ELF at Armada House

There are few cinematic ventures that capture the Christmas spirit in such abundance and hit the Holiday target so directly on the nose

DOORS: 14:00 | FILM STARTS 14:20

Join us in the beautiful setting of Armada House in the centre of Bristol for the perfect start to Christmas week - a day of beloved festive favourites on the big screen.

We’re starting our day of festive fun the best way we know how - with Will Ferrell’s infectiously cheery outing as Buddy in Elf! It’s a perfect way to prepare for the festive weekend if, like us, it’s not truly Christmas until you’ve seen this film again…

About The Film

2003 | PG | 94 mins

Buddy has always struggled to fit in with the other elves at Santa’s Workshop, mainly due to his height. When he learns the truth, that he is a human, he leaves the North Pole in search of his real family  – but can he prevent his biological father from ending up on Santa’s naughty list?

About The Location

Construction of Armada House on Telephone Avenue began in 1901. The building was used by the Bristol Water Company. In 1958, the first non-operator telephone call was placed by the Queen, from Telephone Avenue to Edinburgh. BT used Armada House, then known as Nova House, as their head office until 1990.
