Millennium Stadium

Located on the hallowed turf of the former Cardiff Arms Park, the 72,500-capacity Millennium Stadium is one of the most modern sports venues in Europe. It opened in 1999 and has been a great success; big sports events as well as huge arena concerts have taken place here, and the stadium will also host games for the 2012 Olympics. Guided tours are available, taking visitors to the pitch, dressing rooms, royal box and other areas, and including a visit to the new Welsh Sports Hall of Fame, which has a selection of sporting memorabilia. A riverside walkway runs alongside the stadium.
