Dan Davies, the council's officer with responsibility for events across Monmouthshire and Caldicot Castle says: "We're in for an incredible July in Caldicot as 25,000 people will descend on the town across the ten days. The castle is a brilliant place to visit and we look forward to showing it off to thousands this year."
