Discovered last year my back won’t take a FULL week camping any,ore so have splurged on Llety Arall. The only rooms left were three bed though so if any SSIW ladies want to share for all or part of the week let me know I may snore though be warned!
Hi! I’m thinking of going and would be game to share. The complicating bit is that I’m coming from the States and need to figure out plane tickets etc, so there are a few moving parts before I could say for sure that I’ll be there. When would you need to know by?
Ive been told that this house in Pwllheli is available for the Eisteddfod week!
Yes indeed!
@sara-28 You can rest assured that you are not too late … the tickets will be sold quite some time in advance, but not that far in advance. I don’t remember exactly, but I think they start going up on the site around May/June-ish.
You can buy on entry on the day. You probably can’t buy them on line yet. Keep on looking on the forum and you’ll probably come across meet ups at times and places on the site for SSIWers, but much nearer the time. There are likely to be buses from across Wales so you might be able to join a group going there. If you’ve not been before I’d suggest getting hold of a timetable of events and deciding what you’d like to see before you get there. I’d also go with someone for the first visit. Thus says the voice of experience. I’ve volunteered (perfect Welsh NOT expected) and you get free entry and something to do. Sometimes boring, usually not.
I suppose it depends what you mean by the main events? Not everyone can get into the pavilion when the main prizes are given and the ceremonial takes place, but these events are spread out through the week. They are also put on big screens about the place, although not as many in 2022 as pre covid. You won’t be able to see everything! I’d also be looking at accommodation now (it’s not too early) if you’re hoping to stay nearby, unless you’re thinking of camping, caravanning. The Eisteddfod has a camp/caravan site, with the caravan site selling out quite quickly.
NEWSFLASH!
