Gem White, Event Manager for Sŵn Festival said: “We are really excited for Sŵn Festival 2013, which will be our seventh annual multi-venue new music festival in Cardiff. Last year’s festival was attended by over 5,000 people over the four days and hosted over 200 live acts and DJs. So we’ve set the bar pretty high for ourselves this year!”
