Plans for National Eisteddfod without Maes in 2018

The National Eisteddfod is considering scrapping the traditional Maes when the event visits Cardiff in 2018.

Chief executive Elfed Roberts said the organisation was in discussions about holding the cultural festival in buildings around the city centre, rather than on a temporary site.

Discussions are ongoing with Cardiff council, with a final decision due in November.

Mr Roberts speaks to BBC Wales.
