Eisteddfod announces details of savings on season tickets
With only 200 days to go before the
Vale of Glamorgan National Eisteddfod begins at the old airfield,
Llandow, the Eisteddfod has announced details
of its week-long tickets for visitors to this year’s festival
in the Vale.
Eisteddfod Chief Executive, Elfed Roberts, says, “Like
every other festival and large-scale event, we are very dependent
on the support of our visitors, and we want to make it easier for
our regular visitors to support us by offering special deals to
encourage people to spend more time on the Maes.
“The week-long ticket isn’t a new initiative,
but after speaking to a large number of Eisteddfodwyr last year in
Wrexham and since then, it became obvious that people weren’t aware
of the substantial savings for those wishing to visit the Maes most
days.
“In 200 days' time, we very much hope that
people will flock to Llandow from all corners of Wales and beyond
to enjoy the Eisteddfod. There’ll be hundreds of activities
taking place all over the Maes, and we want to make sure that as
many people as possible spend as much time as they can on the Maes,
enjoying the best Wales has to offer.
“The week-long ticket offers a real saving for
anyone attending the Eisteddfod throughout the week. An adult will
save 34% on the price of eight daily tickets – a real saving of £46
– which will make a real difference for people considering whether
to come to the Maes every day.
“This is only one of the offers available this
year, and we’ll be announcing details of a brand new offer at the
beginning of February when we celebrate six months to go before the
start of the Vale of Glamorgan National Eisteddfod.
“I hope that people will join us in the Vale,
and for the caravanners amongst you, the
registration forms for the official caravan site are available
online and are in the process of being sent out to everyone on
our database. The Vale of Glamorgan is one of the most
beautiful parts of Wales, and there’ll be a warm welcome awaiting
you in Llandow and the rest of the county at the beginning of
August.”
Week-long Eisteddfod tickets go on sale
on the
Eisteddfod website on Saturday 4 February. The ticket
offers a saving of 34% for an adult, costing £90 rather than £136
for eight individual daily tickets.
