SPRING: START OF FESTIVAL SEASON

Following a great Easter weekend across Wales, we're already looking ahead to what's shaping up to be a busy few weeks and there's plenty to get excited about.

Wrexham continues its remarkable rise not just on the pitch, but as a genuine cultural destination. Focus Wales returns to the city on 7-9 May for its 16th year, with 250 artists across 20 stages, film screenings and industry sessions packed into a single weekend.

The Forest Feastival lands at Candleston Woods in Merthyr Mawr from 17 April — street food, live music and one of the most quietly spectacular settings in South Wales. And if you fancy something a little more traditional, Wonderwool Wales takes over the Royal Welsh Showground from 22 April, celebrating Welsh wool and natural fibres in the way only Wales can pull off.

Meanwhile, the most consequential Senedd election since devolution is just four weeks away. Polls have it neck and neck between Plaid Cymru and Reform UK, with Labour potentially finishing third for the first time in Welsh history. If you're not registered to vote, the deadline is 20 April.

And finally - Aaron Ramsey has retired, 86 caps, 21 goals, three major tournaments, and a goal at Euro 2016 that none of us will ever forget. Diolch, Rambo.
