A POPULAR event will be taking place in Ammanford this weekend.

Ammanford’s Big Rainbow Day Out will be taking place on Saturday, September 16 on the second attempt to hold it this year.

Initially the event was due to be held on Saturday, July 22 but was postponed due to the expected heavy rain.

However, attendees will be glad to know that the Met Office has forecast a cloudy but dry day for this Saturday.

At the time, organisers said in a statement: “The BDO team haven’t made the decision lightly and the decision has been made in conjunction with the operators of the inflatables and other activities that were due to be in attendance.”
