Upcoming Events around Snowdonia

Celtic Fair Conwy Harbour

Long ago the entire of Great Britain was home to the Celts, who had been here since times of the Neolithic. They built stone circles, worshipped pagan gods and the earth, hunted, foraged and lived wild with a free lifestyle. However, when the Romans invaded they were pushed back to Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Cornwall. North Wales was home to many Welsh tribes.

While Celtic culture is all but gone in great Britain, we can still celebrate this amazing part of our cultural heritage. The Medieval town of Conwy makes the perfect place to host this celebration of celtic culture. There will be between 70 and 100 food and craft stalls to explore and enjoy.
