Gŵyl Cefni will return on the first weekend of June next year, organisers have confirmed.

The popular festival, which celebrated its 25th anniversary last year, will once again be held in the town centre on Friday 4th and Saturday 5th June 2027.

Last year, the Gŵyl Cefni committee and Menter Môn announced it was taking a year off to further develop the event and plan for the future.

A mini-festival, Gŵyl Cefni Bach, will also be held at the Wellmans club next month in the run-up to Christmas.

Elen Hughes, Menter Môn community director, said: "A great deal of work has been going on behind the scenes while we have taken some time to develop the festival, and it is very exciting to be able to share our plans with people over the coming months."

"Gŵyl Cefni has always been a festival that belongs to the community, and we would like to thank everyone who has continued to support the festival throughout this period."

"We look forward to working alongside volunteers, businesses, partners and local people to make 2027 a very special year for the festival."

First held in 2000, Gŵyl Cefni has become an important fixture in the Anglesey calendar with a host of events celebrating Welsh-language music and culture.

The 2025 festival - the biggest-to-date - featured top Welsh bands and artists such as Fleur de Lys, Gwilym, Mared, Morgan Elwy and Cordia.

MônFM's live coverage also won Gold for Live Event or Outside Broadcast of the Year at the 2025 Community Radio Awards in Bradford.

Organisers say they have been busy working behind the scenes to explore how the festival can evolve and continue in the coming years.

A spokesperson for the committee said: "This work has helped lay solid foundations for the next chapter, providing confidence that the festival can continue to thrive for years to come, with the support of the community and partners."

They added: "The committee is also excited to confirm that a number of fantastic names have already been secured, with announcements to follow over the coming months."

Gŵyl Cefni Bach will be held at Wellmans on Saturday 5th December at 7pm as a taster for next year's event, featuring live music from Calfari, Huw Aye Rebels and Sbecs.

Tickets are £10 and available in advance from Ticketsource.
