Mermaid Quay Supports Mental Health Awareness Week with Free Wellbeing Events
Mermaid Quay is marking Mental Health Awareness Week 2025 with a series of free relaxing, uplifting activities aimed at helping visitors unwind and reconnect. Taking place from 12–18 May, the national awareness week shines a spotlight on community — and Mermaid Quay is embracing the theme with open arms and open-air sessions by the water.
On Wednesday 14th and Thursday 15th May, join Vibes Yoga for a free one-hour yoga session on the boardwalk, overlooking the tranquil waters of Cardiff Bay. Based just around the corner in Cardiff Bay, Vibes is known for its friendly atmosphere, chilled-out classes, and inclusive vibe — plus a cosy coffee bar and event space. Expect good energy, welcoming instructors, and a guaranteed mood boost. Sessions run from 10am to 11am, and you can book your free spot now at vibesyogabar.com.
To help you truly unwind, Tanya Ong of Green T Therapy will be offering complimentary 10-minute massage and reiki sessions on Thursday 15th May from 10am–12pm and 2pm–4pm. No booking is required — just show up and sign up on the day. Whether it’s a neck, shoulder or Thai stretch massage, a soothing head rub, or gentle reiki, it’s the perfect opportunity to take a breather in the heart of Mermaid Quay. Tanya, a self-care advocate and qualified therapist since 2010, only uses vegan and cruelty-free products. You can follow her journey at @green_t_therapy.
There’s more planned throughout the week, including:
- Sunday 18th May – Enjoy the uplifting sounds of the Technicolour Choir performing on the quayside from 1pm to 2pm.
Whether you’re stretching it out on the boardwalk, melting into a massage chair, or simply soaking up the views and sounds of Cardiff Bay, Mermaid Quay is the perfect place to relax, recharge, and celebrate the power of community this Mental Health Awareness Week.
