This weekend event in September was hosted by 4 venues on Swansea’s High Street.
“The High Street is fast becoming the hotspot for live music, comedy and the arts in Swansea. The Elysium Gallery, Hippos, Tangled Parrot, The Jam Jar and Volcano Theatre have joined forces to bring to you four days of non-stop dancing, singing, laughter and activities to show you that Swansea High Street is now THE place to be.”

I felt it was important to attend some of the events and write a review. I wrote it for Buzz Magazine, you can read the full review here:

Great weekend. Apologies to Gower Sound Clash, I incorrectly said that ‘All people Are Equal’ was by Afro Cluster, but in fact it was by Gower Sound Clash. Great track, I drank too much gin.
Me and my mate Liz tend to go for a drink in the Uplands, which itself is a regeneration success and now an established and successful area of Swansea to eat/drink/enjoy.
After giving a helping hand in supporting the regeneration of the Uplands, we now plan on doing the same with the High Street.
