St. David's Day at Aberdare Market Quarter

Celebrate St. David's Day with us at the Market Quarter. We have lots of things going on and we will be supported by our community buddies from Caradog Primary School as we look to spread Random Acts of WELSHNESS and community spirit on this very special day.


From Welsh cakes to love-spoons, from Welsh costumes to miner's lamps, from Welsh foods and produce to Welsh coffee, and a wide range of genuine "Made in Wales" products; all are on offer from the independent businesses at the Market Quarter who extend a very warm welcome to everyone.


The Market Tenants Association will have their photobooth set up for those memorable St. David's Day selfies - so don't forget to wear your best Welsh costumes!


There's also the fantastic opportunity to win the magnificent Myfanwy - a sumptuously rich, decadent and boozy fruit cake in the form of a lady in Welsh costume. The cake has been specially hand-made by our own Lorraine on the Jelly Beanz stall.


Come and join us for a great celebration of all things Welsh, and pick up some bargains at the same time. We look forward to seeing you.


See our facebook page for more details.
