Organised in partnership with Ammanford Cricket Club, the event was designed to bring people together to celebrate local life, while raising awareness of the importance of mental health and wellbeing across Ammanford and South West Wales.

From the stalls, activities and food, to live music, dance and sunshine, the park was filled with energy, laughter and smiles throughout the day.

One of the highlights was the Disney Themed Fancy Dress Rounders competition, which entertained a large crowd with plenty of fun and laughter. The team Gareth’s Carers were crowned champions after a spirited contest.

The Park Bandstand came alive thanks to a host of local performers, including Inspire Arts Dance School, The Mix Social Group, Footloose Dance Company, Trap Ukulele Band, Llew Davies and Allan Sutton. The day was rounded off in fantastic style with a performance at Ammanford Cricket Club by Cân i Gymru 2025 winners, Dros Dro, leaving the crowd on a high.

The event also recognised the incredible efforts of the Jac Lewis Foundation volunteers, whose dedication helped ensure the day ran smoothly.
