What’s happening in and around Tywyn and Aberdyfi in June?
Great events and activities happen all year round in Tywyn, Aberdyfi and the surrounding villages, from the New Year’s Day Dip in the sea to the famous Talyllyn Railway Race the Train every August. Here is our month-by-month guide to what’s on, including everything coming up in June.
Dates can change, especially when the weather has other ideas, so we recommend checking the official event website or local Facebook groups to confirm details before you set off.
