Margam Festival of Music and Arts 2009
Once again, I am
proud to welcome you to the eighth Margam Festival which is now one
of the biggest cultural events in Neath Port Talbot. This year, we
are delighted to announce that Corus, who play such an active role
in supporting the local community, are our new sponsors.
For 2009, we are continuing with the monthly programme of events
throughout July, while adding some new and interesting events for
example a Welsh Day at Margam Castle, The Storys at The Princess
Royal Theatre, and not forgetting an evening with the Welsh Rugby
Legend JPR Williams and the Neath Rugby Coach Rowland Phillips.
With so much to see and do for all the family, why not take the
opportunity to experience this wonderful cultural festival, which
offers something different for everyone.
I should also like to convey my thanks to the Festival
Committee, to Corus and The Wave/Swansea Sound for all their hard
work in bringing this year’s programme together.
We are offering a 10% discount on tickets to all employees of
Neath Port Talbot Council. (Please note, this does not apply to the
events on July 23rd and 30th).
Sponsored by Corus, working in conjunction with The Wave and
Swansea Sound.

"We are really delighted that Neath Port Talbot Council has
chosen Corus to partner this 
year's Margam Festival programme, which appears to have grown
bigger than ever.
We are very excited to be involved and feel that it is important
that local people have as much access as possible to the many
Festival events and activities being held throughout July."
