Plaid Cymru in Ceredigion have welcomed confirmation that the Urdd National Eisteddfod in 2010 will be held at the National Trust’s Llannerchaeron estate near Aberaeron. The Urdd recently announced that Llannerchaeron had successfully beat competition from ten other locations in Ceredigion to host the largest youth festival in Europe.Commenting on the announcement, Plaid Cymru’s Penri James said:
“I’m glad that the Urdd have finally revealed that the 2010 Eisteddfod will be held at Llannerchaeron. This is an ideal location which is in easy reach of all parts of Ceredigion and I hope that this will encourage all of the county’s residents to become involved in the event”.
Cllr Moelfryn Maskell, the Plaid Cymru County Councillor whose Ciliau Aeron ward includes the Llannerchaeron estate, added:
“Hosting this important event at one of Ceredigion’s most historic tourist attractions will give visitors a taste of what the county has to offer. I am also confident that a very warm welcome will await competitors and visitors from all parts of Ceredigion and Wales when they descend on Llannerchaeron in May 2010”.
