鈥溌槎勾礁咔灏's presence on the Eisteddfod field is one of the most notable highlights of the annual calendar, and it鈥檚 great to welcome the event back to the north, and in our community, for the first time since before the pandemic.
鈥淭he Eisteddfod provides a platform for us to offer a flavour of the richness, creativity and range of innovative work being carried out by the University in the context of the Welsh language and bilingualism in Wales. I鈥檓 delighted that staff and students across the University have once again responded enthusiastically to the event to showcase with a packed and varied programme of activities and events. Our contribution to the Eisteddfod is a testament to the quality and range of expertise that exists here in Bangor, and is a celebration of our key contribution to the growth of the Welsh language socially, culturally and economically.鈥
