From Palace to Pontypridd - a Royal Market Day

Break out the Bara Brith, hold onto your Welsh cakes! Because this Wednesday, March 26th, we're getting a royal visit that's going to sprinkle a bit of magic (and maybe some icing sugar!) over The Market Quarter!

That's right, folks, Prince William and Kate, the Prince and Princess of Wales themselves, are popping by! Forget your mid-week slump, this is going to be huge!

Imagine: William and Kate strolling through our beloved Food Hall, soaking up the atmosphere, and… wait for it… trying their hand at flipping Welsh cakes at The Welsh Cake Shop! Will they be golden brown perfection or a slightly charred masterpiece? We'll have to wait and see!

But it's not all about the delicious treats. Our royal guests are also taking the time to visit the Fountain Cafe, where they'll be chatting with our amazing local business owners. They'll be hearing first hand about the challenges they face especially with the recent flooding.

So, get your flags waving, your best smiles ready, and join us in giving William and Kate a warm Pontypridd welcome! Let's show them what makes The Market Quarter and our town so special! This Wednesday is going to be one for the history books!
