00:00There really aren't many better places to visit in the summer than Cardiff.
00:06We've got a bit of everything depending on the weather and what you're looking for.
00:10When it comes to doing things with the kids, Cardiff is jam-packed through the summer with
00:14a number of different events taking place, of course, just like down in Cardiff Bay.
00:21It isn't quite ready yet, it's all getting set up, but this family fun park has a little
00:24bit of everything.
00:25From rides to games to food, it's so much easier to make a full day of it.
00:29Plus, with it being in the centre of Cardiff Bay, here in the Roald Dahl Plaas, you can
00:32visit the rest of the bay at the same time.
00:37And it is certainly not just the fun park though that's great in the summer in Cardiff
00:40Bay.
00:41With boat trips around the marina, plenty of places to walk around, and of course, loads
00:45of places to eat and drink, Cardiff Bay is always one of the most popular places to visit
00:49in Cardiff in the summer, and even on days like this, it really is magnificent.
00:57And this Ferris wheel has become a bit of a staple for Cardiff Bay, and you can see
01:00for miles up there, so it's a great opportunity to take in all of Cardiff and everything you
01:04can do while enjoying your time in the bay.
01:09And something Cardiff Bay hasn't seen on this sort of scale ever before, the Bay Series
01:13will bring some world-renowned music acts to the waterfront in what is going to be an
01:16incredible music of summer.
01:19Featuring the one and only Muck Fly, New Order, Becky Hill, Tiesto, and later on in the summer,
01:24Mike Skinner aka The Streets will also be coming to Cardiff Bay.
01:30And speaking of iconic places around Cardiff welcoming some massive musical acts, Cardiff
01:34Castle still has plenty to go this summer.
01:38After welcoming a number of festivals and acts like Avril Lavigne, next up are some
01:42incredible names coming to the centuries-old castle.
01:46We've got Madness, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Wales' own Catfish and the Bottlemen,
01:51before hosting Depot Festival with loads of names in the line-up, including Anne-Marie.
01:57It seems everywhere you look, you can find some music going on in Cardiff this summer.
02:03Then there's all of Cardiff's amazing parks, where the price for packing a picnic at home
02:07and transport, you can have a full day out.
02:10Roath Park is full of different things to do, from getting out on the pedlos on the
02:13lake, to the massive play areas, to the conservatory which is full of different plants and animals.
02:20And then of course, Bute Park is a classic with plenty of space to play around and have
02:24a picnic and explore all of the trees and different parts of the park.
02:28And of course, there's no forgetting one of the most iconic parts of Cardiff, and I suppose
02:35in fairness there might be a dispute over whether it's Cardiff or not, but it's definitely
02:39in the Greater Cardiff area, you've got Barry Island.
02:43It's one of the summer destinations anywhere in Wales, and definitely the rest of the UK,
02:48and a favourite for any South Wales trip to the beach.
02:52Needless to say, if you're looking for any kind of day out in Cardiff, you'll be able
02:55to find it somewhere in the city.
