Croeso is a festival celebrating all things Welsh held in Swansea.
The best of local Welsh culture including:
- Food and drink
- Cookery demonstrations
- Live music
- Street entertainers
- Workshops

Head to Swansea’s St David’s Place to hear the wonderful sounds of Welsh music before moving to Oxford Street where you can sample the best of Welsh food, drink, and handcrafted goods. Don’t miss the cooking demonstrations!

First Bus – Travel Partner
“We’re your local bus service, but we’re more than just a way to get from A to B.
Buses bring people together - connecting communities, opening doors to opportunities, and making life more accessible. It’s the sustainable choice, the budget-friendly choice, and a choice for everyone, no matter who you are or where you’re going.
We know we’re not perfect. We don’t always get it right, and we can’t take you everywhere. But buses are always here, offering a reliable, welcoming way to travel. They don’t ask questions or judge - because they’re for everyone, every single day.
Thank you for riding with us and being part of what makes our service more than just transport. Together, we’re building connections that matter.”
