There will be an opportunity during the morning to listen to music from the incredible Megan Lee and others on the Daniel Owen stage before hearing the results of the Mold window dressing competition. To conclude the morning C\u00f4r y Pentan and local harpist Emily Owens will entertain us back at the Daniel Owen Centre. <\/p>\n\n

There will of course be an opportunity to visit all the town’s businesses and the hustle and bustle of the weekly market, we are pretty sure there will be plenty of daffodils for sale and a warm welcome too. <\/p>\n\n
