StrikeFest!

Buy tickets here

Saturday 3 December, 1-10pm in Shift

StrikeFest is an eclectic all-dayer with festival vibes, moving from stalls, print-making, and acoustic performances earlier in the day to bands and DJs for a chance to dance in the evening.

The event will raise money for Cardiff UCU’s fighting fund. University and College Union members at 150 institutions across the UK will be taking action in a historic national strike to defend pensions, tackle pay inequality and casualisation, and fight for better pay and working conditions. We raise money to support our lowest paid and most precarious members to go on strike, because the loss of pay is most significant for these people.

We don’t want cost to be a barrier for entry so this event is pay what you can, and if you’re able to give more in solidarity with striking workers, please do! If you can’t attend the event but would still like to donate, we welcome you to do so by making a donation on this event page.

StrikeFest

Dydd Sadwrn 3 Rhagfyr, 1-10pm yn Shift

Mae StrikeFest yn ddiwrnod eclectig o ŵyl, gyda stondinau, argraffu, areithiau, a pherfformiadau acwstig yn gynharach yn y dydd ac ymlaen i fandiau a DJs am gyfle i ddawnsio gyda’r nos.

Bydd y digwyddiad yn codi arian ar gyfer cronfa ymladd UCU Caerdydd. Bydd aelodau Undeb Prifysgolion a Cholegau mewn 150 o sefydliadau ar draws y DU yn cymryd camau mewn streic genedlaethol hanesyddol i amddiffyn pensiynau, mynd i’r afael ag anghydraddoldebau cyflog ac achlysurol, a brwydro am well cyflog ac amodau gwaith. Rydym yn codi arian i gefnogi ein haelodau ar y cyflogau isaf a mwyaf ansicr i fynd ar streic, oherwydd colli cyflog sydd fwyaf arwyddocaol i’r bobl hyn.

Nid ydym am gost fod yn rhwystr rhag mynediad felly mae’r digwyddiad hwn yn talu’r hyn a allwch, ac os gallwch chi roi mwy mewn undod â gweithwyr sydd ar streic, gwnewch hynny! Os na allwch fynychu’r digwyddiad ond yr hoffech gyfrannu o hyd, mae croeso i chi wneud hynny trwy wneud cyfraniad ar y dudalen digwyddiad hon.

Bandiau, perfformiadau a DJs

  •  Ade Jonz (Excellent Skeleton)
  • Louie Lane a Ella

Lleoliad a mynediad

Mae Shift wedi’i leoli ar islawr Canolfan Siopa Capitol ar Heol y Frenhines, Caerdydd.

 Mae’r fynedfa ar y gornel gyferbyn â Sainsbury’s, nid yn y ganolfan siopa ei hun. Mae lifftiau ar gyfer mynediad heb risiau.
