Tim Cymru Official Retail Kit Launch

With the 2026 Commonwealth Games just weeks away, Team Wales plans to launch an exclusive range of merchandise for Welsh fans. The big reveal will take place at a star-studded event on Saturday 23rd May at John Lewis in St David’s Cardiff, officially 2 months to the opening ceremony of the games.

The event marks the first activation between Team Wales and John Lewis since recently announcing the brand as the official retail partner for Team Wales merchandise. The event will give fans the chance to be the first to see and purchase the official unisex collection, which includes branded hoodies, accessories and tshirts.

Starting from 2pm at John Lewis, the event will be hosted by Team Wales Chef de Mission, Gethin Jones, with appearances from Love Island stars Ciaran Davies and Scott Van De Sluis, and The Traitors favourites, Andrew Jenkins and Fiona Hughes.

The event will also bring a live DJ set from Josh Navidi, as well as a live fashion show featuring former Commonwealth legends. Taking to the runway to debut the new collection are ex-Commonwealth legends, Lauren Price MBE, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, Christian Malcolm, Dan Jervis, Jamie Baulch, Nathan Stephens, and Wales and British & Lions Captain, Ken Owens.

The collection marks a significant milestone for Team Wales, as it becomes the first time the organisation has released official merchandise for retail purchase. The launch also allows supporters to actively engage with Team Wales ahead of their journey to the next Games in Glasgow.

We will be hosting a little celebratory party following this event for our partners at The Ivy Cardiff from 4-6pm.
