Jason Mohammad is back in Cardiff Bay for the second time this week to bring all the highlights and stories from the National Eisteddfod of Wales. It's the big literary ceremony today as the bard is chaired, and there is a very familiar face from the rugby world taking part in the proceedings as an honorary member of the Order of Druids!
Highlights
It is a pop-up city within the capital city that celebrates the best of Welsh culture. The National Eisteddfod, the biggest cultural event in the Welsh year, comes to Cardiff. It is a snapshot of what is happening in Wales, showcasing everything from the classical music stars of the future to rock bands, folk music, dance, cutting-edge contemporary visual art, literature and much more.
Jason Mohammad, himself a local lad, heads down to Cardiff Bay to bring all the highlights and stories from the 'maes' - usually a field but this year an open-to-all festival - no ticket required.
The pavilion - traditionally a large tent and the heart of the official competitions - is this year the Wales Millennium Centre. Bryn Terfel stars in a show about American singer Paul Robeson, while Wales and Lions rugby player Jamie Roberts finds himself joining the 'Gorsedd'.
Jason brings us a flavour of what has been going on this year - a year like no other in the long history of the Eisteddfod.
