Crowfest to return to Cwmbran this month with top talent
Crowfest will be back in Cwmbran in 2025 and will take place at Cwmbran Stadium on July 19.
Up to 3,000 people are expected to attend the event, which features live music and family entertainment.
Cwmbran Community Council said: "Last year's Crowfest exceeded all expectations.
"We're thrilled to bring the community together again for hopefully an even bigger and better event."
The 2025 lineup includes Watkins & Oliver, Darren 'Graceland' Jones, The Brotherhood, The Oasis Experience, Rusty Shackle, Guns2Roses, and Abba Revival.
Watkins & Oliver are local talent, with organisers saying that they are 'destined for the spotlight.'
Darren 'Graceland' Jones will be bringing Elvis Presley back to life with his popular tribute act, whilst The Oasis Experience will be bringing the best of the Britpop band to Cwmbran.
Organisers say The Brotherhood are 'guaranteed to get the crowd on their feet,' whilst Rusty Shackle will bring some high energy.
The final two acts - Guns2Roses and Abba Revival - are the world's most renowned Guns N Roses tribute and the UK's number one ABBA tribute respectively.
Crowfest was originally planned as a one-off event to celebrate Cwmbran's 75th anniversary.
This year's festival will feature face painting, acrobatic jugglers, bubbleologists, retro carnival games, mini golf, and celebrity lookalikes.
Food and drink options will showcase local vendors, and the festival will also introduce Crowfest Beer, a limited-edition craft brew created by Tudor Brewery.
Tickets are available now through Eventbrite.
