This June, one of Wales' most vibrant cultural celebrations – a festival of live music, language, and modern Welsh identity – is coming straight to your living room.

S4C will bring the full energy of Tafwyl, Wales' leading Welsh-language music and culture festival, to viewers across the UK and beyond on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 June.

Set in the heart of Cardiff at Bute Park, the festival celebrates the best of Welsh-language music, arts, and culture – and this year promises to be the biggest yet.

With live performances, backstage interviews, and exclusive digital content, audiences can enjoy the full festival experience wherever they are.

Festival highlights include:

• Live performances by top Welsh-language artists including Diffiniad, Aleighcia Scott, Morgan Elwy, Rose Datta & Taran, Fleur De Lys, Bwncath, Tara Bandito, and Dadleoli.
• Behind-the-scenes access with popular DJ and presenter Huw Stephens, singer Tara Bethan, and TV personality Lloyd Lewis.
• Festival highlights shows airing both evenings at 8pm on S4C.
• Extended digital coverage available on S4C Clic and YouTube.

Huw Stephens, who returns to host Tafwyl coverage for the fifth year, said:

"It's fantastic to be back at Tafwyl and bring this one-of-a-kind festival to audiences at home. The music, energy, and the celebration of the Welsh language are always incredible."

Aleighcia Scott who reached number 1 in the Reggae iTunes chart recently, shared her excitement saying:

"2025 has been a whirlwind – from coaching on Y Llais, to getting the first-ever Welsh-language No.1 in the UK Reggae Charts, and now performing at Tafwyl. I'm loving every moment!"
