Gŵyl Ifan is a festival that celebrates traditional folk dancing, primarily from Wales, but also other European countries. 

Each year dancers from far and wide come together to entertain the public with traditional rituals, colourful costumes and lively music. 

Join us to watch Cwmni Dawns Werin Caerdydd raise the 'pawl haf' (summer pole) and perform their 'dawnsio gwerin'. 

All welcome!
