GwyddonLe

At the Urdd Eisteddfod in Swansea 2011 the GwyddonLe was a showcase for all sorts of scientific workshops. New to the Maes since 2010, the GwyddonLe is one of the most popular attractions of the festival. Full of interactive exhibitions, weird and wonderful science experiments and fringe activities. A committee was set up at Swansea University, with a number of other companies keen to provide a varied and attractive science experience to all visitors.

We hope to welcome the GwyddonLe back to the Maes in 2012!

Over the week, more than 13,000 visitors were welcomed into the GwyddonLe!
