Where to drink... Cardiff is one of the best towns in EUrope for post match beers. All the pubs are concentrated i the main drag of St Mary's Street which is only a 2 minute walk from the Millenium Stadium. There are some smashing pubs, O'Neils was our favourite, jam packed, but the staff were fantastic and the atmoshpere brilliant.




   

Completed in time for the 1999 World cup, the Millenium stadium is one of the worlds most spectacular sporting arenas boasting a roof which can open or close depending on weather conditions.

The shape of the seating bowl is the primary factor in the design of the stadium. Its form is optimised by computer analysis to bring spectators as close as possible to the in-field action and to provide a high standard of viewing and comfort for each seat

It provides a wide range of accommodation on its three overlapping tiers while minimising the overall footprint and impact of the stadium on its city centre site. The north section of the stadium, currently interlinked with Cardiff Athletic's South Stand will separate the facilities and access routes within the two stands. 

The rear of the lower tier and its concourse link directly with the external podium, surrounding streets and river walk. This  provides direct access for wheelchair users and other disabled people to their designated seating areas. Access to the middle and upper tier concourses will be by escalators, lifts and stairs strategically placed around the building. 

Upper and lower tier concourses offer similar high standards of toilet and refreshment amenities for spectators. The middle tier is to provide accommodation for the WRU, hospitality suites, media facilities and the stadium control room all on its upper level with specialised refreshments and dining accommodation on its lower level concourse. Car parking, delivery access and back of house facilities are to be  accommodated in the two levels below the podium.
