A CELEBRATION OF WALES IN NEW YORK CITY

We want others to know what's great about being Welsh, and we want them to join us in our celebrations. Every nation is unique, and each has their own way of commemorating this. Wales Week in New York is our moment, and we plan to use this as a stepping stone to help raise the profile of everything that is awesome about Wales. 

 Wales Week in New York was a natural addition to an already successful initiative in the UK as Wales Week in London, founded in 2015 by two Welsh-based business people, Dan Langford OBE and Mike Jordan 

In 2019, a Wales Week New York revival was launched and funded by Welsh-American businessman, Ty Francis MBE. This calendar of events around St. David's Day, galvanizing existing Welsh communities in New York City, Wales Week New York hopes to build a positive momentum across the city that is distinctly about Wales. It's an opportunity for organisations in Wales to promote their products and services, and develop new New York-based audiences, partnerships and connections with the best in Welsh business, music, art, food, tourism, heritage, sport, public life and media. Together with Marc Walby and Gwilym Roberts-Harry his fellow New York Welsh co-founders (New York’s largest Welsh social and business network) Wales Week New York will bring the New York Welsh community together, support business and the arts, and provide networking and support for those business overseas wanting to expand the US.
