What's New in Bath for 2025: Exciting Developments in our Historic City

While Bath's UNESCO World Heritage status ensures its Roman and Georgian treasures remain beautifully preserved, 2025 brings several exciting new developments to enhance your group visit to this historic city.

The Bath Quays development creates a vibrant new riverside quarter connecting the city centre with the River Avon through pedestrianised streets, featuring new restaurants, shops, and public spaces — a great addition to any group itinerary in Bath.

The Fashion Museum Bath has reopened in its stunning new location at the Old Post Office building on Northgate Street. After relocating from the Assembly Rooms, this internationally significant collection now has expanded exhibition space and innovative new displays. The feature exhibition "Georgian Glamour to Modern Mode" traces Bath's influence on fashion through the centuries.

Culinary enthusiasts will be excited by new restaurant openings bringing exceptional cooking to Bath in 2025. The city's food scene continues to punch well above its weight — perfect for groups who want a memorable dinner out as part of their stay.

Transportation around Bath becomes easier with the electric Park & Ride shuttle service and the expanded Bath Bike Share scheme, which now includes electric bikes ideal for groups exploring the city and surroundings.

The Holburne Museum has unveiled its newly landscaped gardens, creating a beautiful new public space connecting Sydney Gardens with the museum — another excellent free attraction for groups to add to their itinerary.
