* Andy Day and his band The Odd Socks are bound for Llangollen this summer.
Beloved children’s TV presenter Andy Day will be back in Llangollen on Sunday July 13 as part of the International Eisteddfod’s Family Fun Day.
And this time he’ll be bringing his brilliant band the Odd Socks along for the ride.
The centrepiece of the day will be a lunchtime concert in the Pavilion, produced in association with Music for Youth, featuring sets from Andy and the Odd Socks, along with a variety of talented youth music groups, handpicked from both around the UK and from the Eisteddfod’s visiting international groups.
Alongside the concert in the Pavilion, the Family Fun Day will feature a host of fun activities for all ages, along with a variety of performances on the Eisteddfod’s outside stages, from both visiting international competitors and professional performers.
Artistic Director of the festival, Dave Danford, said: “Andy went down a storm at last year’s Family Fun Day, so we’re delighted that he’s agreed to return this summer, especially with his band coming as well.
"They’ll be featuring in our lunchtime concert in the Pavilion, which we’re looking forward to working on with our partners Music for Youth, who will be bringing along some of the UK’s finest young musicians to share the stage. It’ll be a brilliant day out for the whole family.”
* Tickets are available from Llangollen.net, with family tickets starting from £21 for an adult and up to 2 children.
Taking place from Tuesday-Sunday July 8-13, the week-long festival will include evening concerts from The Who’s Roger Daltrey, BRIT Award-winner KT Tunstall, classical crossover group Il Divo, West End star Lucie Jones and leading opera star Sir Bryn Terfel with Fisherman’s Friends.
