Carnival of the sea which will be the Pinnacle to the National Eisteddfod in Cardiff and the national celebration of Year of the Sea which will be held at Cardiff Bay for 2018.
Artist Megan Broadmeadow will be commissioned to work with Butetown and Grangetown to create a Visual work inspired by history, experience and culture of their communities. Singer and musician, Gruff Rhys will be commissioned to contribute the musical element that celebrates traditional Welsh melodies and travelled across the water to other countries, settle and return refreshed to Wales.
The elements will form part of the Eisteddfod's opening concert ' this is my Brother ' in the Millennium Centre on 3 August which will lead the audience in a procession to a place whilst watching and experiencing the event above the water. The projection will takes place every night during the Eisteddfod, attracting a greater audience every time.
