Royal Welsh Young People's Village site saved with new music and camping arena announced

A new venue for young people will take place at this year's Royal Welsh Show. SV Arena promises to give young people somewhere "safe to stay and enjoy themselves", according to organisers.

It comes after it was decided in January that the Young People's Village was scrapped from the agricultural festival in Powys. Organised by the Wales Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs (Wales YFC), previous years had seen the venue attract more than 4,500 people from all over the UK.

But organisers said that the cost of living crisis had heavily impacted the fees for running the camping and entertainment zone that coincides with the show, and as a result, a decision was made to cancel it for 2023. Since then, it has been announced that SV Arena have taken on the land where YPV was previously held.
