Day 1 (Friday): Morning departure from North Wales and travel to Cardiff to arrive early afternoon. After checking in to our hotel, the rest of the day is free to explore the vibrant capital city of Wales. Visit the many museums, indulge in some retail therapy or visit Cardiff Castle, where you can discover 200 years of history in the heart of the city.
Day 2 (Saturday): Free day in Cardiff to enjoy Tafwyl. Entrance is free to Tafwyl. There’s no need to buy tickets, just turn up at Bute Park and enjoy! It has earned its stripes as one of Cardiff’s top family friendly events and even won Cardiff Life's Best Festival category in the 2022 awards! It’s the perfect way to celebrate Welsh culture and art in a friendly and relaxed environment.
Being a non-Welsh speaker doesn’t restrict you from enjoying the event at all. It's all about celebrating Welsh arts and culture – even if this is your first ever experience of the language. It’s the perfect place for meeting old friends and making new. There’s a special tent for Welsh learners, with special guests on the stage, art and craft for the children and a café available all day. A great way to know more about learning the language, and plenty of opportunities to practise your Welsh and meet other learners.
Day 3 (Sunday): Another day at leisure in Cardiff to enjoy Tafwyl. Tafwyl's line up offers an eclectic mix of bands and artists across four stages that are sure to appeal to a wide audience. Tafwyl’s Street Food Area is a food festival in itself. A huge range of food stalls offers everything from authentic Thai food to Greek street food. Amongst past traders are Brother Thai, Grazing Shed and Meat and Greek. Your only problem might be choosing which dish to go for…!
Day 4 (Monday): After breakfast there is time in Cardiff for some last-minute shopping or sightseeing before the coach departs at 2.00pm for the return journey home.
