The annual local festival will be using the building’s distinctive glass front for a stunning display of vertical dancing for its opening event on 21st April.
Other activities during the evening are linked with the Year of Legends 2017 campaign, including members of Anvil productions dressed in medieval costumes, a climbing wall and cave, archery and an opportunity to see the iconic wooden dragon carved by sculptor Simon O’Rourke.
Local pupils from Ysgol Aberconwy have also been tasked with writing a poem about Yr Afanc, the legendary monster who was said to live in the River Conwy. Two winning poems will be read out during the evening.
