CELEBRATE St David’s Day in South West Wales with National Trust Cymru. Three local sites will be free to enter for the day, opening the doors for more people to enjoy Wales’ heritage, landscapes and traditions.

Lhosa Daly, Director of National Trust Cymru, said:

“St David’s Day is a time for us all to come together and celebrate the culture, creativity and community spirit that make Wales so distinctive. The places in our care are woven into the nation’s story - from the legend of the red dragon at Dinas Emrys reflected on today’s flag, to the Welsh language safeguarded by Bishop William Morgan of Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant.”

“As a charity, we’re here to look after these special places: protecting the landscapes and histories that define Wales, helping more people feel connected to nature, beauty and heritage, and ensuring that everyone has the chance to experience the richness of Wales’ past and present.”

Visit Llandyfeisant Church set within the historic Dinefwr estate as we celebrate the birds from Welsh myths and legends. Join artist Ami Marsden and craft your own wearable creation -whether that’s wings or a mask - and enjoy the sounds of a Welsh choir filling the space with music.

Settle in for some tales of Wales with storyteller Phil Okwedy, enjoy traditional Welsh music with harpist Elin Lloyd, and let your little ones’ creativity flow as they try the small harp or enjoy Welsh-themed craft. Finish your visit with some delicious Welsh treats in the tearoom.

Time travel to Tudor Tenby and discover rooms dressed in seasonal greenery, leeks and golden daffodils, meet costumed characters bringing history to life, enjoy children’s activities, and relax as you listen to the beautiful sounds of a harpist performing traditional Welsh music. 

With support from Welsh Government's St David's Day Fund, National Trust Cymru will bring together live performances, craft activities, children’s trails, clog dancing, guided walks and demonstrations of traditional skills - all designed to celebrate Wales in all its vibrancy and ensure that everyone can access and enjoy Welsh culture on 1 March.

All participating sites listed below will be free to enter on March 1, head to the website to plan your visit.
