Swn Festival Organisers Reveal First 80 Acts

Organisers of Sŵn are very excited to announce the first 80 acts who will be playing at their 6th annual Sŵn Festival later this year.

As usual, the people behind-the-scenes haven’t disappointed with the first look at who’ll be rocking the festival this year, and have grouped together an eclectic yet definitely apt selection of bands and artists once again. The line-up includes names like Errors, Gallows, Dry the River, Charlotte Church, Turbowolf, Manhattan Coast, and many more. You can check the full list below.

The four day multi-venue festival will be held this autumn, between Thursday 18th and Sunday 21st October. Along with the first announcement of acts, Sŵn has also re-launched their festival website and created an all new Facebook page, where Sŵn Festival goers can share their past festival highlights on the timeline and see all of the latest festival news.

Since 2007, Cardiff has played host to the annual Sŵn Festival, bringing some of the newest and most exciting local, national and international acts to the Welsh capital. The festival is now moving into its 6th year, with the most ambitious festival plans to date. Whilst still focusing on new and emerging acts, the festival will also play host to some well established headline acts, as well as broadening the programme to include arts based fringe events.
