Eisteddfod, Wrexham
From £5.00
The 1,700-seated pavilion is still the festival's focal point and is the main stage for honouring the best of the best. Some of Wales’ leading writers, musicians and poets take to the stage, with competitions ranging from acting and dancing to solo singers and large choirs, poetry and prose, all delivered in Welsh. Simultaneous translation services are available for non-Welsh speakers and learners. After-dark, expect star-studded theatre shows, cabaret and orchestral pop gigs.
You don't have to be a Welsh speaker to enjoy the Eisteddfod, but you’ll never get a better chance to learn and practice a few phrases, so head to Maes D (D stands for Dysgwyr, which means learners) and have a chat with one of the friendly experts. Simultaneous translation of all the main Pavilion events and many of the events around the maes is also available free of charge.
A huge street food area showcasing the best of Welsh produce. Expect vegan food, burgers, pizzas and much more. The Syched bar serves Welsh beer, cider and wine including Cwrw Llŷn and Gwynt y Ddraig and the Gin Bar sells Welsh gin and spirits such as Aber Falls and Brecon Gin.
