This film shows the events which took place to celebrate the opening of the YHA building in Bangor on 30th May, 1965. A few young people are shown having fun running up and down the grass near to the youth hostel. A crowd of people are shown listening to speeches being made by well-presented men outside of Bangor Youth Hostel (one of the men is wearing Mayoral chains - presumably the local Mayor). A man in a suit shakes the hands of guests as they make their way into the youth hostel after the speeches. A woman is shown standing on the grass outside the hostel; people are walking in the background and a small baby is sitting on the grass. The baby is fascinated by the small white daisies on the grass. A family including a young child are shown playing on the nearby grass. A woman in a pink dress holding a bouquet of flowers, and a well-presented man in a suit exit the youth hostel and exchange pleasantries with guests outside. The guests outside the youth hostel continue to socialise. End.
