Fire in the Mountain - Tan Yn Y Mynydd 2012
Full Details and Tickets can be found on www.twoforjoy.co.uk
The Fire in the Mountain is rekindled and its warm glow casts light over the valley of change – Cwmnewidion. Red kites soar above lush green ravines, with oak grove and wild meadow below. Located between the fringe of the magnificent Cambrian mountains and the beautiful coast of Cardigan bay, where hare and horse graze, natures spirits ebbing and flowing.
Join us in bringing this ancient kingdom alive once again in another magical gathering of hearts, minds, and music.

It will cost £5 per car to park, and £10 per Camper Van. This is because space is limited and we want to encourage people to car share and take alternative public transport. Car Share via FaceBook page.
