Today (2 March), it was announced that the 2013 National Eisteddfod will be held in Denbighshire, from 3-10 August, with the festival returning to land at Kilford Farm, its home ten years ago in 2001.
Elfed Roberts, Eisteddfod Chief Executive said:
“We are delighted to announce that we will be visiting Denbigh in two years time, and are looking forward to holding the festival on Kilford Farm. It is an excellent site and was very popular with our visitors in 2001. That Eisteddfod was a great success, and we are pleased to be returning to the site in 2013.
“Local people have been eager to host the Eisteddfod for a while, so we are pleased to announce its location today. The preparations will begin soon and we will call a public meeting before Easter to gather the support of people across the county. We are looking forward to working with local people once again.”
