BAFTA Cymru (or BAFTA in Wales or WAFTA ) is the Welsh branch of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) and was founded in 1987. [1]
The British Academy Cymru Awards were established in 1991, [2] with the first annual awards ceremony held on 30 November 1991. The annual ceremony takes place in Cardiff to recognise achievement in production, performance and craft categories in Welsh-made films and television programmes and by those of Welsh birth or residence. These are separate from the UK-wide British Academy Television Awards and British Academy Film Awards , although films and programmes recognised by BAFTA Cymru may also feature at BAFTA's national awards.
