St David’s Hall opened in Cardiff in 1982 – a 200 seat concert hall set right in the middle of Cardiff. It hosts everything from rock concerts, orchestral concerts, Cardiff singer of the world, ballet performances, plus gamelan, the reduced Shakespeare Theatre company, and free lunchtime concerts - in fact there is something on almost every day of the week. They advertise most of the evening concerts several months in advance - and if you want to go to any of the really big name events, it is worth becoming a 'friend' of the place so that you get advance ticket informaiton and availability!

There is not only the concert space – there are two bars where you can have a relaxing drink, or something to eat in the restaurant, exhibition spaces for local and national artists.

We tend to pop in quite oiften and have a look at what the various exhibition is, and maybe have a coffee, rather than go to the evening shows. It is really easy to get to, since it is right in the middle of Cardiff.
