I combine photometric and spectroscopic data from the COSMOS survey with visual morphological classifications from the Galaxy Zoo project to explore how the fraction of disk galaxies hosting bars has evolved since z=1. I provide evidence that this evolution is dependent on stellar mass. I also explore how the colour populations of disk and barred disk galaxies have evolved over this epoch. Finally I present the first observations of bar fractions beyond z=1 using HST CANDELS observations.
