Welsh dragons will take to the streets of Britain's smallest city tomorrow (Saturday) to celebrate St David’s Day.

The spectacular sight of life-sized dragons lining the streets of St Davids is organised by staff at Oriel y Parc gallery, visitor and education centre.

It will take place at 11.30am tomorrow, as dragons join the more traditional pilgrims and costumed Welsh folk.

Oriel y Parc’s Education and Events Officer Luci Hall said: “The event will feature dragons made by children from six local schools, and this year we’ve also opened it up to community groups who can enter by picking up an entry form from our website.

“These are pretty big dragons. They will be made by junior pupils and have to be at least one metre wide and four metres long. They also need to be based on the design of the dragon on the Welsh flag.

“The parade will be led by the Air Training Corps band, and will hopefully be just as much, if not even more, of a success as last year.

"Those involved will parade from Oriel y Parc, down to Cross Square before returning to Oriel y Parc.

“We will be encouraging members of the public to join the parade on the day as well, providing that they are suitably attired, for example in Welsh costume or dragon outfits.”

Oriel y Parc will also be running creative workshops for families where people can create their own St David’s Day inspired badges from 2pm to 4pm tomorrow. Families can make a St Davids Day badge and have their photograph taken in an authentic Welsh costume.
