The Big Cheese, dates to be confirmed
Caerphilly Castle is undergoing development work and it is therefore not feasible for The Big Cheese to take place in its usual format in 2022. Alternative options for 2022 are being investigated and updates will be posted as soon as possible. It is likely that an alternative event will take place later in the year. Please watch this space!
