Top 10 Things to Do in Aberystwyth This Summer (Without the Stress of Parking)
Summer is the perfect time to explore the coastal charm of Aberystwyth, with its vibrant events, scenic spots, and rich culture. But if you’ve ever circled around town looking for a parking space in peak season, you know how quickly a fun day out can turn into a frustrating one.
This year, ditch the car and let Teifi Taxis take you directly to the action — no parking, no stress, just door-to-door convenience.
Here are the top 10 things to do in Aberystwyth this summer, and how Teifi Taxis can get you there with ease:
1. MusicFest Aberystwyth (July 20–27, 2025)
A week-long celebration of classical and contemporary music, MusicFest brings world-class performers and talented students to venues across Aberystwyth University and town. Parking can be limited near concert halls, so book a taxi to arrive on time and stress-free.
2. Explore Constitution Hill and the Cliff Railway
Take a scenic ride up the historic Aberystwyth Cliff Railway and enjoy panoramic views from Constitution Hill. Skip the uphill walk or crowded car parks — let Teifi Taxis drop you right at the base station.
3. Relax on Aberystwyth North Beach
Golden sand, an iconic promenade, and a peaceful atmosphere make North Beach a summer favourite. Taxis can drop you just steps from the shoreline, so you won’t need to worry about hauling beach gear from a distant car park.
4. Discover Aberystwyth Castle Grounds
Wander through the stunning castle ruins and enjoy a picnic with a sea view. The nearby parking spots fill up quickly in summer, but a quick taxi ride ensures you arrive hassle-free.
5. Aberystwyth Carnival (August 10, 2025)
A colourful highlight of the local calendar, the Aberystwyth Carnival features parades, live music, stalls, and community spirit. Roads will be busy and parking may be restricted — taxis offer a simple, stress-free way to get involved in the fun.
6. Visit the National Library of Wales
One of the UK’s most important cultural institutions, the National Library of Wales hosts exhibitions, events, and tours throughout summer. Whether you’re a history buff or just curious, you’ll enjoy being dropped off right at the door.
7. Day Trip to Borth Beach
Just a short drive from Aberystwyth, Borth offers a quieter seaside experience with stunning views and a charming village feel. Book a taxi for a comfortable, scenic ride without worrying about rural parking.
8. Take the Vale of Rheidol Railway to Devil’s Bridge
This nostalgic steam train journey through the Cambrian Mountains is a must-do. Let Teifi Taxis take you to the Aberystwyth station, and enjoy a day in nature with no parking stress involved.
9. Enjoy the Aberystwyth Farmers Market (Twice Monthly)
Taste fresh produce, local crafts, and homemade treats at the town’s bustling farmers market. Held on Park Avenue, parking can be a nightmare on market days — arrive fresh and ready with a pre-booked taxi.
