Known in Welsh as 'Gwyl y Cenhedloedd Bychan', this is a multilingual celebration of the music of Wales alongside that of other small nations. Set on a farm near a small village, this festival celebrates minority cultures and languages and the universal language of music in all its forms.
A wide range of music may be represented such as Irish, electronica, bhangra, Afro-beats, flamenco, samba, techno and twmpathhas. This year's line-up is as follows:
Friday - Andy McNamara; Ben Waters; Derwyddon Dr.Gonzo; Eleanor McEvoy; Everyone Else but Burt; Lolou; Lee Patterson; Martha & Eve; Meerkat; Pearls out of Water; Peter Stacey; Satori; Ska Cubano; and The Anomalies.
Saturday - B-Line; Bomb Culture; Boys from the Hill; Carolina Herrera; Dom Duff; Fraser Fifield; Guy Buttery; Kanda Bongo Man; Marc Egea; Martha & Eve; Mechanics Institute; Mooli; Omega 66; Pwsi Meri Mew; Rico and the Thieves; Sibrydion; Subsource; Survival Sound System; The Strand; Trench City; and Zrazy.
Sunday - Guy Buttery; Buena Risca Social Club; Heather Jones & Gary Phillips; Hummingbird; Samba Tawe; and Zrazy.
Added to this, there are children's workshops, a Digital Futures Stage offering up DJs and electronica muisc, plus a late night café / bar / chill-out area .
There are also stalls, food and a bar between the stages which are housed in a very large barn, big enough, the organisers claim, to hold a thousand people. If the weather is fine the doors will be folded back although everything will be undercover just in case!
Youth tickets
These are limited in number to just 50 so teenagers need to book early!
CAMPING, CAMPERVANS, CARS
Camping and campervans are welcome at a extra £10 or £15 respectively. Cars have to be parked away from the tents and are charged at £5.
