Amazing experience, 100% recommend this place for the experience and widely accessible and accommodating as got moved to more suitable seats by a staff member due to accessibility. Great layout overall, plenty of toilets, food and drink options and staff amazing and friendly. Car park has easy access to arena via multiple lifts and stairs directly to the entrance for ease of access, this parking is a bit more pricier than other options but if you want to be near and have an easy experience I would recommend.

An absolutely fantastic venue in Swansea, a nice modern theatre feel with so much space, and help for those who need assistance, bars ,food and lots of toilets, a must visit. Good parking as well.

Wow what a fantastic experience!! We came to listen to the Music of the Movies played by the Welsh Concert Orchestra. What an absolutely wonderful treat! The venue was really cool, very fun to enter into that golden swirl ceiling entrance lobby. The Music of the Movies was thrilling to listen to and watch the orchestra and accompanying choir live. The conductor was funny and kept the performance moving in the most effortless and enjoyable way with his little introductions to certain pieces and well thought out comments and notes of trivia about the music. The sound of the orchestra was gorgeously full and rich and even though we were at at the top at the back it was still a good enough level of volume to feel fully immersed in the music. My personal favourites from the set they played were the pieces from Narnia, LOTR's, Star Wars and Harry Potter. Thank you for a very memorable and wonderful afternoon.
