LLAWN01

LLAWN01 will celebrate, over one packed weekend, (llawn is, after all, Welsh for full) Llandudno’s fascinating and colourful history and explores why she was bestowed with the title Queen of Welsh resorts.

 

LLAWN01 will re-introduce an iconic Victorian structure to the shoreline; that of the Bathing Machine, which was a necessary component of seaside etiquette in the 19th century.

 

Six bespoke Victorian-style bathing machines will form the beating heart of LLAWN01. Each bathing machine will be the inspiration and the venue for a series of specially commissioned events, by local and international artists, that will pepper the prom, the seashore and a prominent site in the town centre. These fascinating replicas will be brought to life as beautifully customised, mobile mini-theatres/galleries to house a series of performances and installations that connect with the town’s history.

 

There will also be numerous parallel activities, events and happenings that will animate the whole town, created in collaboration with the festival’s key partners; MOSTYN, Helfa Gelf, Royal Cambrian Academy, Migrations, C.A.S.C, TAPE Community Music and Film, Conwy County Borough Council, Venue Cymru, to name but a few.
