When: Friday 1st August 2008 -> Sunday 3rd August 2008 - Various Times

For details of the BIG Weekend 2009 click here...
The UK’s biggest free outdoor music festival offers three days of quality live music and entertainment on stage. The finest selection of dynamic white knuckle rides and traditional family attractions in this splendid setting.
The civic centre will be jumpin’ to the usual eclectic mix of pop, world, folk and jazz music - but be prepared to do a little more that your usual embarrassing ‘dad dancing’ on Friday night as we create Wales’ biggest ‘twmpath’ on City Hall lawn.
