Today is the start of Wales Tourism Week 2024, an annual opportunity to celebrate our tourism businesses in Wales. So all week we'll be celebrating events, accommodation, attractions and things to do across Monmouthshire.

Today we'll be looking at some of the events coming up over the next few weeks.

Straddling the England / Wales border above Monmouth, Buckholt Wood has 60 hectares to explore, including an ancient Iron Age hillfort and fantastic views over the Monnow Valley. They've recently received National Lottery Heritage Funding, meaning they can expand their events programme with archaeological digs, nature trails and evening bat walks.

Wye Valley Chamber Music's Summer Concerts - 29th July Open Day

Wye Valley Chamber Music

Every year the talented next generation of classical musicians get together with seasoned artists and tutors at Treowen Manor for a week of masterclasses and rehearsals, before performing in three events across the Wye Valley.

It's a great chance to hear classical performances in beautiful settings, and to support these talented young musicians.
