Animal magic, music, vintage vehicles and a performance of Under Milkwood all share top billing at the National Botanic Garden of Wales this Easter.
The meerkats are back and the Quack Pack is returning to wow holiday visitors at the best garden in Wales.
Students from Coleg Sir Gâr will be performing the Dylan Thomas “play for voices” on Easter Saturday and Towy Valley Vintage Club are in the Garden on Easter Sunday having their annual start-of-season crank-up.
They will be showing off a variety of vintage cars, steam engines, tractors, garden equipment, bikes and models – and some club members will be in vintage dress.
To help celebrate Easter Monday, Dyfed Carriage Club will hold their annual Easter Bonnet Parade of horse-drawn traps and carriages.
In charge of events at the Garden is David Hardy. He said: “It’s a pretty mouth-watering line-up over the bank holiday weekend and throughout the Easter holiday. We will also be trialling our ‘Garden Explorers’ offer where young visitors can grab a back-pack, select from a range of activities and then head off into the Garden and enjoy themselves.”
There will also be Garden craft activities, ‘How to make an Easter egg’ woodturning demonstrations, Easter chicks and ‘How to keep chickens’ workshops, and the Great Garden Story-Telling Weekend.
