The events programme will run from mid-July until late August and offer inclusive, fun-filled experiences for all abilities including outdoor activities, day trips, youth exchanges, community events, a football tournament, circus workshops and a thrilling Aqua Park and International White Water Centre takeover.

Regular youth clubs will also be taking place across the city offering activities including cooking, arts and crafts, gaming, and sport, all in safe spaces for young people to connect with each other, make new friends and try new things.

The Cardiff Content Creators, a group of young people who joined forces with young creators and a broadcaster from California to learn broadcasting skills and shoot videos during the Summer with a DIFF'erence 2023, are offering a unique opportunity for young people aged 11-17 to take part in a digital summer camp. The Storey Arms Outdoor Education Centre in Brecon will also be providing a series of outdoor experiences.

"Cardiff Youth Service serves as a crucial support system for many young individuals, offering a safe space and a listening ear throughout the year, positively impacting countless lives. I encourage as many young people as possible to participate in this exciting events programme as part of our summer provision."
