MAWW Fire at Eisteddfod 2026 – y Garreg Las

Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service (MAWWFRS) attended this year’s Eisteddfod which took place in, Llantwd, Pembrokeshire from 1st – 8th August. This year’s Eisteddfod took place in the area known as ‘y Garreg Las’, named after the striking local bluestone.

The catchment area stretches across three stunning regions: Pembrokeshire, south Ceredigion, and west Carmarthenshire. Our Community Safety Team had a stand in the perfect location, offering members of the public free safety advice and information as well as the opportunity to sign up for a free Safe & Well check.

There were plenty of activities for children to take part in, including Sbarc colouring sheets, a chance to try on a firefighter’s kit, as well as an opportunity to take part in our ‘Lithium-Ion Battery Safety’ competition! Sbarc, the lovable Service mascot also made appearances throughout the week, providing a fantastic photo opportunity!
