Whew. What a weekend!! Three days, multiple acts, all under a tent around the famous fountain in Merthyr Tydfil. Just a selection of my pics from the Unreal Festival by The New Crown. Incredibly grateful to the team, organisers, everyone who turned out (and braved the rain last night!) Images taken from The New Crown page hence the watermark (images were backed up on their system)

For people in the Merthyr Vale / surrounding areas, Windsor Hotel and Bar are reopening their restaurant soon. The restaurant is currently under refurbishment, but function room and rooms are available to book. Perfect for cycling enthusiasts as it's near BikePark Wales.

Merthyr / surrounding area - little heads up that The Talking Shop Merthyr is giving away free furniture (armchairs, etc.) today as they are closing. Might be worth a look to see what they have on offer!
