This year, your festival ticket includes facility fees for Friday paddling. So, if you'd like to come for a warm up paddle, be sure to get the day off work! This might be especially useful if you're not familiar with the river: come and check out the features before the competitions of the weekend.  

Your ticket also covers camping for Friday and Saturday evenings. If you're van/car camping, this will be in the middle car park. Tent camping will be over 2 fields - a quieter area, and the usual one closer to the party (we're going to work on flattening it a bit more, after feedback last year). 

Manon's Riverside Cafe will be open throughout the weekend, with wood-fired pizzas available on Friday evening. Dinner on the Saturday evening is included in your ticket, as well as entry to the party tent, and all the events over the weekend. 

There will be entertainment both evenings: a live band, the traiditonal T Fest quiz, a kayak-related talk and more. 

Saturday & Sunday paddling We have the usual variety of events: NRS Extreme Race (this is a mass start Boater X - not for the faint-hearted!), Palm Epic Enduro, NWWC Team Raft Race, Palm Throwbag Olympics, plus of course the obligatory wave competition. We're hoping to have one or two new events this year, including a less gnarly water-based event for those of us with a normal amount of fear! No need to pre-book events and races, just sign up on the day. 

Various coaching sessions are available from Plas y Brenin at an additional, but subsidised cost.  See below.

There will also be demo boats and trade stalls. 

The full schedule will be posted to our Tryweryn Festival Facebook page and emailed to ticket holders nearer the time.
