Bristol City have played in red and white since the 1890s, occasionally also including black.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Bristol_City/Bristol_City.htm|title=Bristol City|publisher=historicalkits.co.uk|access-date=20 May 2008}}</ref> The away kit is more variable. It is traditionally white, but has also featured black or yellow. Other colours featured have included green and a purple and lime combination, the latter of which has become a fan favourite.

* The club's current crest is a modernised version of the Robin which has long ties to the fans and the club.
* The club's previous crest was a simplified version of the [[coat of arms]] of the city of Bristol.
* The club's mascots are Red and Robyn, replacing Scrumpy the [[European robin|robin]] who had been the club's mascot from 2005 until 2022.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/34517490@N00/2952027137/|title=Bristol City mascot|date=18 September 2008|publisher=flikr|access-date=22 December 2008}}</ref>
* The club has a long association with West Country band [[The Wurzels]]: "One for the Bristol City", written for the club in 1976, is the run-out song at Ashton Gate, while their 1960s hit "Drink Up Thy Zider" is played after home wins.

About halfway through the 2007–08 season Bristol City manager [[Gary Johnson (footballer, born 1955)|Gary Johnson]] said in an interview that he hoped the team could get the whole ground bouncing.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/championship/4743236/Bristol-City-bounce-up-to-fourth.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120912161940/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/championship/4743236/Bristol-City-bounce-up-to-fourth.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=12 September 2012|title=Bristol City bounce up to fourth|work=[[The Daily Telegraph]]|date=21 February 2009|last=Haylett|first=Trevor|access-date=20 January 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/bristolcity/news/want-Bristol-City-fans-shake-foundations-Madejski-says-Johnson/article-710231-detail/article.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120913082445/http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/bristolcity/news/want-Bristol-City-fans-shake-foundations-Madejski-says-Johnson/article-710231-detail/article.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=13 September 2012|title=I want Bristol City fans to shakefoundations of Madejski says Johnson|work=[[Bristol Evening Post]]|publisher=Bristol News and Media|date=18 February 2009|access-date=20 January 2010}}</ref> City supporters took this rallying cry on board and began to sing "Johnson says bounce around the ground" to the tune of [[Yellow Submarine (song)|Yellow Submarine]], while continually bouncing up and down. The first game at which it was sung was in an away match against [[Southampton F.C.|Southampton]] at [[St Mary's Stadium]], and it was also sung at away at [[Queen's Park Rangers F.C.|Queen's Park Rangers]] in February. When Bristol City fans travelled to London to play [[Charlton Athletic F.C.|Charlton Athletic]] on 4 March 2008, the visiting fans, using the rail network to return home, adapted the song to "Bounce Around the Train". Since then, it has become an often used chant at [[Ashton Gate stadium]] by the fans.{{citation needed|date=January 2020}} It was also sometimes used by supporters of Gary Johnson's former side [[Northampton Town F.C.|Northampton Town]], primarily at away matches. When Gary Johnson's son, [[Lee Johnson (footballer)|Lee Johnson]] returned to his former club in 2016 as their new manager, he stated that he wished to inherit the chant and keep the fans singing it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/lets-get-the-gate-bouncing-johnson-2945705.aspx|title=Let's get the Gate bouncing – Johnson|first=Adam|last=Baker|access-date=9 February 2016|archive-date=11 September 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160911083407/http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/lets-get-the-gate-bouncing-johnson-2945705.aspx|url-status=dead}}</ref>
