Yuup is the marketplace for local experiences, launched in Bristol in 2021 with Bath and Birmingham following in 2022.
We founded Yuup because we love supporting local communities and we love experiences.
We believe that connecting local businesses with local customers helps to build stronger and more resilient communities. We love to see local enterprises thrive, the local butcher with a queue out the door, the library extending its opening hours, the exercise class in the park or the artisan in their workshop.
We believe these enterprises can offer fun, diverse, original and varied experiences to local people and in turn, create new revenue streams and attract new customers.
We have built Yuup to help them by providing the tools to develop, promote, manage and deliver experiences. If you’re a owner or creator curious to join us, find out more about becoming a Yuup experience host.
We’ve always been passionate about experiences and like many, we would far rather receive an experience as a gift, that another physical possession. However, buying and gifting experiences is often frustrating so we decide to try and make it all a bit simpler.
The result is Yuup.co. We hope you love it, we hope you find experiences you want to try, and many of you decide to offer experiences yourself.
We have some pretty big growth plans next year at Yuup 🚀
I'm on the lookout for a Social Media Manager to join our team, be the voice of our brand and own the strategy and execution across all platforms.

EVOLUTION - The Drone Light Show🦖⭐
🌟 A huge THANK YOU to Yuup & Celestial for extending the invitation to City Hospice to be a part of the first drone light show in Cardiff's Sophia Gardens! ✨ We're incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be involved in such a spectacular event.
Together, we raised just over £600 for City Hospice, supporting our mission to provide vital care and support to those facing life-limiting illnesses in Cardiff. Your generosity and support truly makes a difference to the lives of our patients and their families⭐
It was an unforgettable evening filled with mesmerising lights and heartwarming community spirit. We're proud to have been a part of it, and we couldn't have done it without the amazing support from Yuup, Celestial, and everyone who attended❤️

No, these are not AI or stock imagery.
These are real people that sat in awe of the amazing Evolution show at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff on Good Friday 😍
Since we set out on our Evolution journey with Celestial last year, over 50,000 people have experienced this incredible show. I’m so proud of what we have achieved as a small team at Yuup and there’s much more to come 🚀
Next stop, Nottingham 📍

At Yuup we are keen supporters of local business, local culture and unique experiences.
So we could not be more thrilled to be combining hosts from two of our cities to bring an incredible performance to Bristol Cathedral.
Birmingham Royal Ballet will be performing a very special introduction to The Sleeping Beauty, one of the greatest classical ballets of all time, in the magnificent surroundings of Bristol Cathedral.
The event will be presented by Jonathan Payn, Principal Character Artist & Assistant Répétiteur, along with Tom Rogers, an ex-company dancer, who will guide the audience throughout the evening and give expert insight into how the show is created and performed. Live piano accompaniment from pianist Jeanette Wong.
The perfect example of how Yuup is bringing unique, locally hosted experiences to local customers.
