What is the National Eisteddfod?

The National Eisteddfod is a celebration of the culture and language in Wales. The festival attracts around 150,000 visitors and over 250 trade stands and stalls each year and encompasses all aspects of the arts and culture in Wales. It is an inclusive and welcoming festival, which attracts thousands of Welsh speakers, Welsh learners and those who do not speak the language every year.
