This month's Creative Cuppa is delivered in partnership with Media Cymru.
About Creative Cuppa
Join us for a chance to meet, connect and learn from other creatives—whether you're just starting out or have years of experience—at our monthly Creative Cuppa.
Each event begins with a TED-style talk on Creative Cardiff’s monthly theme, followed by an informal hour to build relationships, share knowledge, and uncover new opportunities (with coffee and cake, of course!).
July’s theme: Sustainable live events
With summer in full swing, festivals, gigs and cultural events are popping up across the city. But with temporary infrastructure, crowds, tech, and waste—how do we reduce environmental impact of our live events?
Whether you run events or just want to learn more about low-carbon approaches in the creative sector, this month’s Creative Cuppa, in partnership with Media Cymru, features a talk by Hope Solutions.

Additional event: How to be a Greenlancer
Before Creative Cuppa, Media Cymru and Picture Zero will deliver a free ‘How to be a Greenlancer’ training session in the same venue. The workshop offers practical advice on how freelancers can be more environmentally focused and cost-efficient across:
- Working from home
- Digital/online presence
- Travel and transport
- Office spaces
