Passionate Welsh rugby fans will be in their element this week, as Cardiff Blues put on a unique celebration of Wales, at their derby clash against the Scarlets Friday, 8.05pm kick off.

The Blues Supporters Quarter at the Cardiff City Stadium will be turned into a unique ‘Welsh Village’ for the occasion- full of activities including live music, children’s entertainment and Welsh dancing from 6.30pm, before the match kicks off at 8.05pm.
It promises to be another red hot encounter between the Welsh regional rivals as they both look to climb the Magners League table.

All supporters at the games will also be treated to performances by the Cardiff Blues very own choir, and Canton based dance troop Clocs Canton.

As part of the Welsh celebratory theme, Cardiff Blues have teamed up with the URDD who will be providing interactive games for junior supporters to enjoy. URDD members in the Cardiff and Vale, Glamorgan and south Powys branches are able to claim a buy one get one free offer on tickets for the match.

Sales and Marketing Director at Cardiff Blues, Tina Tew Said: “We’re expecting a great atmosphere here at the stadium on Friday night. Not only can fans expect an exhilarating game of rugby on the pitch, there will be plenty of entertainment before the game, and at half time. We’d encourage fans to get to the stadium as early as possible to make full use of all the free entertainment on the night.”

Blues player Rhys Thomas said; “I am currently learning Welsh myself, so I’m delighted that we are putting on a celebration of Welsh culture and heritage here on Friday.

He added: “A great atmosphere from our fans in the stands always helps us on the pitch, so we’re hoping for a great game of rugby on Friday night.”
