Bring Learning to Life at Llangollen Eisteddfod!
Give your students an unforgettable cultural experience at the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod, a vibrant festival that celebrates music, dance, and international unity. A school trip to the Eisteddfod is an exciting way to inspire creativity, broaden horizons, and bring learning to life beyond the classroom.
We welcome thousands of pupils to our festival every year, which provides them with the perfect educational opportunity to experience cultural diversity and international interaction.
“We took 50 children to the Eisteddfod for a school trip. The field had enough exhibits and stalls to amuse them all day, there were people in beautiful costume from all over the world walking the field and we even managed to get a picture with the amazing Bryn Terfel! Inside the tent we were treated to amazing choirs and dance. We spent all day there and it flew by. I would recommend this for a totally immersive experience which you won’t forget, with colours, sounds, and smells of the diverse food and the people…amazing friendly wonderful place.” (Teacher, 2017)
Every year thousands of people throng through the gates of the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod. Wandering around the field, they are captivated by the sight of international visitors in fabulous national costumes, entertained by groups performing on one of three outside stages (frequently joining in themselves), and fed by some of the many international food outlets which take up residence for the week.
