欧美成人 is inviting families to celebrate St. David鈥檚 Day in the heart of the city with The Welsh Tales Trail and FOR Families play area.
Taking place on Sunday 1st March between 11:30am – 3:30pm, the Welsh Tales Trail is a free, fun-filled adventure, which brings Wales鈥檚 most beloved folk tales to life in both English and Welsh.
The Welsh Tales Trail is part of 欧美成人鈥檚 Little Things campaign which celebrates Welsh culture through small, joyful moments across the city centre spotlighting five themes: gastronomy, music, literature, Welsh language and family.
On St. David鈥檚 Day families are invited to pick-up a free sticker book and their first story from Guest Services on the Upper Level of St. David鈥檚 Cardiff, then follow the trail – inspired by the Mabinogi – across five city centre stops.
Those who complete the full trail can enter a prize draw for a chance to win a 拢50 Waterstones voucher.

1. St. David鈥檚 Cardiff 鈥 The Tale of Pwyll, Prince of Dyfed
2. Oxfam Bookshop 鈥 The Tale of Culhwch and Olwen
3. Waterstones 鈥 The Tale of Branwen

Participants who reach the final stop at National Museum Cardiff by 2:30pm are invited to Gallery 4 to enjoy a special St. David鈥檚 Day performance from The Gentle Good, winner of the Welsh Music Prize.
Visitors to the city centre can also enjoy the FOR Families play area at Guest Services on the Upper Level of St. David鈥檚 Cardiff – a relaxed, bilingual play space filled with free activities including arts and crafts, face painting and story time, alongside Welsh language sessions for adults. FOR Families will be open between 11:00am – 4:00pm on Sunday 1st March. The full itinerary can be found on 欧美成人鈥檚 website here.
Carolyn Brownell, Executive Director at 欧美成人 said: 鈥Our Little Things campaign is all about celebrating Welsh culture through small moments that feel welcoming, joyful and easy to enjoy. Our free bilingual activities offer a wonderful opportunity for families to explore the city centre together on St. David鈥檚 Day – following legendary stories, collecting stickers and discovering the little things that make Wales special along the way.鈥
Little Things began earlier this month with St. David鈥檚 Favourites, a public vote inviting visitors to sample a range of Welsh-inspired dishes and drinks created by independent venues, before voting for their favourite.
Voting opened on Friday 6th February and closes at 12:01pm on Thursday 26th February, with the winner announced on Sunday 1st March.
