Fast-fort-ward to summer 2024!
Castles in the Sky is a spectacular public art event which intertwines Welsh culture, art and history – something as a nation we are extremely proud of. From 6 July to 15 September 2024, Swansea will come alive with colour and conversations, as our Castle sculptures take hold of the city.
Joust a little bit excited!
For 10 weeks, streets, parks, and public spaces across Swansea will be home to a series of Castle sculptures, each one individually designed by an artist and sponsored by a business.
This free for all event is a fun, family-friendly trail of discovery for local people and visitors to explore and enjoy – even on a reign-y day.
A dedicated trail map and app will help you navigate your way to discovering each sculpture, where you can unlock a series of rewards and fun facts.
Young people from local schools and community groups will also have an exciting opportunity to decorate their own mini castle ‘a little keep-sake’.

The Wales Air Ambulance Charity is delighted to host Castles in the Sky, a Wild in Art trail, the first of its kind in Swansea. Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity for businesses, the creative sector and communities to come together to create something special.
Saving lives with Wales Air Ambulance
This trail is brought to you by Wales Air Ambulance!
The Wales Air Ambulance delivers advanced lifesaving medical care to people across Wales 24/7. We are the only air ambulance charity, based in, and dedicated to, the people of Wales and rely entirely on your charitable donations to raise £11.2 million every year to keep the helicopters in the air and fleet of rapid response vehicles on the road.
Following the public trail, the large Castle sculptures will be auctioned to raise vital funds and awareness for Wales Air Ambulance, allowing the charity to continue their lifesaving work across Wales.
