Lots of excitement in Brecon next weekend, with events throughout the following week, as King Goodwill Zwelitheni is visiting. With him will be some of the descendants of men who fought at Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift.
The visit starts at Brecon Barracks, on Sunday 21st July at 5.30pm, with a pageant to welcome the King. Admission is free.
On Monday evening at 7.30pm there will be a concert at Brecon Cathedral featuring the Brecon Male Voice Choir and harpist Emily Harris. Admission is £15.
On Tuesday and Wednesday there will be performances of Cetshwayo The Musical at Theatr Brycheiniog. Cetshwayo was King of the Zulu Nation during the Anglo-Zulu wars of 1873 to 1879, and led the Zulus to victory against the British at the battle of Isandlwana. King Goodwill is a direct descendant of King Cetshwayo.
