There is a bwtcamp in the gogledd next year, in April, but I donât think there will be more than that.
I will let you know here when the September booking opens. (But if you need to book tickets etc, then I can always keep you a place)
Hello Iestyn, I have booked a place for the April Bootcamp. You did mention that if they do not fill up they will be cancelled, so I am wondering how the bookings are looking at the moment. I can get a cheaper flight for March if I book with Qantas before the end of December. Iâll be in Neath for fi e weeks and one in Tresaith. Iâm sorry to put you on the spot but if there is a chance that it could be cancelled then I will postpone to later. Thank you.
Hi Lynne!
We havenât had to cancel a bootcamp yet for lack of interest, except for the second september camp last year, which we only put in because we thought that we were going to have an overspill. I wonât be opening Juneâs bootcamp until April is starting to fill either, so it is highly unlikely that April wonât get 6 bootcampers.
I canât absoulutely guarantee the numbers, of course, but I would advice you that if you want to come in April, book your tickets and you will be safe enough. If the rise in prices after the end of December isn;t much, then it might be worth delaying just to be even safer, but if itâs a big rise, then probably not.
One other thing - because you are incurring quite a few expenses just to come over here, I would definitely advise that you get travel insurance. It might very well be possible to get a policy that included costs back if the event that you are attending is cancelled - itâs definitely worth asking.
But as to âhow bookings are goingâ, we have had two bookings so far - roughly what we would expect this early in the game. I would expect another 2 or 3 in January, which would make April pretty safe of gping ahead.
Sorry to not be absolutely definite, but I hope that helps anyway.
Thank you very much Iestyn. I am like a cat on hot bricks waiting for this Bootcamp as my head is full of Welsh that has got nowhere to go. Lol!
Brilliant! Iâm looking forward to being caught in the flood!
Quick question for the July bootcampâŚis the Eisteddfod nearby this year?
Not that it would influence my decision, for some reason the airfare is more expensive for September than for July.
Also, if anyone knows offhand, what are the airport options if travelling overseas from the US? I know Cardiff is oneâŚ
Not really ⌠itâs the other side of Wales, near Abergavenny

@tahl @atomic_newt @treymccain and others 
Shows how important it is to talk to someone local - I was on the verge of saying âYes, itâs kind of down that sort of wayââŚ
Oh yes, if itâs not on the Llšn Peninsula then itâs in that âother part of Walesâ
âDros y CobââŚ
Also take into account relativity. I was going back to Aberystwyth, from London way, for the weekend and was asked â Isnât that really far?â i said âOh no, itâs only 5 hours in the carâ, because I had been living in Fife, Scotland the previous year, so to me it was relatively close.
Just shows how well Iâve settled into Wales. When I first came here after living in Australia everywhere in the UK was close 
Iâve flown into Manchester in the past. In October 2014 we flew into Manchester and took a train to Cardiff. Y Fenni was a stop along the way.
OufâŚwonder how far in advance location is decided. Iâd hate to wait another year but if the Eisteddfod is nearby it would be worth it.
We, thanks to the wise advice of a fellow bootcamper, flew into Birmingham and took a train from the airport to Aberystwyth. It was one of the easiest international trips Iâve been on due to the size of the airport and the ease of catching the train (quick shuttle from airport terminal). The same wise and kind fellow drove us from Aberystwyth to Tresaith, and someone else drove us back to Aberystwyth at the end.
FYI we stayed one night before boot camp in Aberystwyth, and the day boot camp ended we took the train back to Birmingham and stayed at a hotel on site. Great decision for us, and the hotel (literally on airport property across the street from the terminal) was quiet with no airplane noises.
I think they announce the locations 2 or 3 years out. Weâve also flown to Caerdydd a few times from NY and Chicago, and itâs pretty $$ and with an connecting flight. Birmingham or Manchester would at least get you on ground in the UK and on more reliable rail transportation.
The 2017 Eisteddfod will be on Ynys MĂ´n (Anglesey) - not really in the neighbourhood either

WellâŚno time like the presentâŚ
