Celebrate with Us

We’re proud of our city and we’d love you to come and visit and see for yourself what makes Swansea such a wonderful place to live. To whet your appetite, we’d like to tell you about a very special list of 50 greatest icons – including historic moments and unforgettable places – that was put together for people to vote for their favourite. Results will be announced this month.
