Christmas & bank holidays
These dates are not the usual timetable for the day they fall on. They come from the operator’s published data, which for Christmas and New Year is often late or incomplete, so check with Cardiff Bus before you travel. Everything above is an ordinary week.
- Boxing Day — Saturday, 26 December 2026 The operator’s data lists more buses on this date than on an ordinary Saturday (10 journeys, against 5), which usually means two timetables have been added together by mistake. Check with Cardiff Bus before you travel.
