Josie d'Arby explores one of the largest and oldest travelling cultural festivals in Europe - the National Eisteddfod of Wales. As a presenter for 主播大秀 Young Musician, Choir of the Year, Proms in the Park and 主播大秀 Cardiff Singer of the World, Josie has witnessed an abundance of world-class music. But as a proud Welsh woman, this is the first time the Songs of Praise presenter will get to experience this jewel in the crown of the Welsh cultural calendar.

Immersing herself in this festival of druidic pageantry, poetry, music and visual art Josie will find out exactly what drives almost 150,000 people to take on sun, mud and the main stage in this extraordinary nine-day cultural competition, this year taking place on Anglesey. This is far from your average TV talent show. Josie discovers how pride and performance really make this nation sing.
