Ar Redadeg 2014 Celebrates the Breton Language

Ar Redadeg is a relay race that takes place every two years across the nation of Brittany. It is designed as a celebration, promotion and to raise funds for the Breton language. There are only six Celtic languages spoken in the world today- Breton, Cornish, Welsh, Irish, Manx and Scottish Gaelic. Breton is now the only Celtic language spoken on continental Europe. 

Traditionally the race goes through the five Breton departments of Penn-as-Bed, Aodoù-an-Arvor, Mor-Bihan, Il-ha-Gwilen and Liger-Atlantel. This year’s race takes place between 24 and 31 May details of which can be obtained from the official Ar Redadeg website www.ar-redadeg.org
