The culmination of this year's "#CardiffIs Summer" campaign is the Cardiff Harbour Festival which hosts the Extreme Sailing Series. Sharing the Series with seven other cities, such as Muscat and San Diego, Cardiff will play host to elite level sailing crews, including the British team, Land Rover BAR Academy, mentored by senior members of Sir Ben Ainslie's America's Cup team. A host of fun nautical activities will also be available for the entire family to enjoy. The festival is on over the August Bank Holiday weekend - August 25 until August 28.

Cardiff Council's Cabinet Member for Culture and Leisure, Cllr Peter Bradbury said: "I am sure everybody will agree that we've got a cracking summer lined up here in Cardiff. I encourage people to tell all their friends and wider family about the fun activities available this summer either by word of mouth or on social media. Help us to get #Cardiff Is trending on both Twitter and Facebook. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere wish that everybody has a wonderful summer."
