Pilot test events will take place in Wales during the next month as sporting fixtures in the country prepare to welcome back supporters.

An update from the Welsh Government on Tuesday confirmed plans for Newport, Swansea and Glamorgan games to be played in front of fans over the next four weeks.

The Wales national team will also get the chance to play with spectators in attendance at the Cardiff City Stadium in their European Championship warm-up fixture with Albania on June 5.

"Welsh Government is working with partners on the delivery of pilot test events which will develop processes and guidance that will allow the safe return of events in Wales," a statement read.

Caretaker boss Rob Page has three warm-up fixtures before the tournament gets under way and the clash with Albania at Cardiff City Stadium on June 5 will now be played in front of 4,000 fans.

Mark Drakeford, First Minister of Wales, said: "It's been a long and difficult 18 months for the events industry in Wales – for event owners, those who depend on the sector for the work – and for those who long to see the return of live events to Wales.

"As we look at lifting the coronavirus restrictions in Wales we have worked closely with event organisers to establish a list of pilot test events which take in a range of different locations and types of event.

"This work is bringing us a step closer to a return to events in Wales, I'd like to thank these event owners and local authorities and health boards for their commitment in working with us and wish them well over the summer."
