Venue Cymru

We had a great evening at this venue, however it is not clear to people attending for the 1st time that there are two venues within the one building. We got a drink in the bar, queued to get in to the hall and where then informed we were in the wrong place. My mobility isnt great, so we did our best to hurry out of the door, along the street and back inside. We had got there early, knowing it was a standing gig, so that I could lean on the barrier to help my balance. Since we were in the wrong place, that wasnt possible. Apart from the poor signage on tickets and on the entrance, the venue was excellent. Drinks prices were sensible. Facilities good and clean. Excellent gig, although I had to leave before the end, due to the lack of seating in the large arena.

Fantastic evening at the pantomime this year. We saw Cinderella and it was as hilarious as always! What a great theatre! The staff were polite and friendly and the auditorium was well maintained and clean. Amazing night out!

Me and my wife went to see the Cinderella pantomime, to say it was good would be an understatement, it was an absolutely outstanding experience. We laughed and loved it from start to finish. At the interval I had a pint of lager and my wife had a bottle of water, the service was very quick. We can’t wait to go again.

Had a lovely experience taking my little one to see ‘In The Night Garden’ a couple of weeks ago. The venue itself was clean and tidy, the staff were very helpful and friendly, and there was plenty of parking. Would highly recommend!

I have telephoned on 3 ocassions over recent months to book tickets for various shows (Daniel O'Donnell, Mama Mia, Cinderella). Each time I have spoken to a very helpfull, efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant member of staff. So far I have only attended one show however the organisation within the theatre has been excellent. I have always booked early enabling me to book great seats. The seats are both comfortable and leg room is plentifull. I like in Cheshire however like this theatre for all the above reasons and the ease of parking. It would be much nearer for me to travel to Manchester or Liverpool to the theatres however I appreciate what Venue Cymru offers me and the shows that perform and appear there. Thanks for your outstanding level of customer service and the enjoyable experience.

I love coming to this theatre. It’s small enough that you get a good view of the stage from anywhere in the theatre. The shows are amazing with lots of big musicals showing, good value for money. Go early as parking is limited and gets full guickly , you can park on the street with a pay and display ticket

Great pre-performance meal overlooking the sea. Lovely staff, good wine list. Superb interpretation of Tosca by WNO: the two main characters sang fantastically. The orchestra was very good (the odd split note but we're all human). Overall, it was a fabulous experience, thank you.

As someone who has been wanting to attend a show at venue Cymru. I’m genuinely shocked and disappointed that Venue Cymru chose to host Nigel Farage. Regardless of anyone’s political views, inviting such a polarising and divisive figure sends a clear message about the kind of voices the venue is willing to platform,especially after what's happened with Nathan Gill. It’s the opposite of creating an inclusive, welcoming environment for the community. Venue Cymru, you can and should do much better than this. The community deserves a space that prioritises safety, inclusivity, and respect—not one that gives a stage to people who thrive on stoking division especially in these times. I will not be attending a venue with such ignerance and lack of knowledge on very important issues such as politics.

'Venue Cymru' has been the cause of some debate in the local area. If someone mentioned the name 'Venue Cymru' to you would you know what it was? Even if you know that Cymru is Welsh for Wales (and I'm sure you do) chances are you still wouldn't guess what Venue Cymru is. It is in fact a recently expanded conference centre which incorporates the former North Wales Theatre (now offically also known as Venue Cymru). The theatre is a modern and well equipped theatre which was purpose built to be the North Wales home for the Welsh National Opera. It has an ugly boxlike structure built on top of it (again the cause of much debate) which was necessary to hold the scenery and props required for WNO performances. There are comfortable seats, good views and a number of cafes and bars for interval refreshment. They do attract some big names and shows and the panto's are always a big draw in December. This years will star John Challis aka Boycie from Only Fools and Horses. The venue also includes a large hall which is used for large meetings, trade shows and is beginning to build a reputation as a concert venue with the likes of The Kooks, The Feeling, Enter Shikari and Pendulum all booked to appear soon. The rest of the building is made up of smaller meeting rooms with a number of bars and cafes dotted around. There is a particularly nice restaurant at the front which overlooks the bay. There is a reasonable sized pay and display car park at the back which is shared with the swimming pool next door but across the road is the Mostyn Champneys Retail Park which has a large, free carpark. This is now a very well appointed conference centre. Unfortunately despite having in excess of 250 hotels there is a feeling that there aren't enough of sufficient 'quality' to attract the big players but this is none the less a great asset to the town.

An eerily empty and soulless, if efficient place to see the stars of stage and screen in Llandudno. The place works, but despite the posh Starbucks coffee in offer, something about the place is lacking that spark of art. Plus it's on the shoreline, so you'd think that'd help.

A great theatre that is right on the front in llandudno. View is good no matter where you sit. They have a surprising number of excellent shows through the year, as well as a great panto every xmas. There is a small bar area for drinks and snacks and another coffee shop. They have also reacently built an outdoor standing arena where they have live music played by some big acts including duffy, the feeling, the kooks! Top theatre venue in north wales - (no booking fees either as you book direct!!)

Venue Cymru is a silly name (half English and half Welsh!) for a great place. They have some excellent acts here. I like the 1960's bands but there is something for everyone, and the pantos are brilliant for the kids! I find some of the counter (booking office) staff can be a little indifferent and would benefit from some training in customer service. A smile would be nice sometimes! Excellent purpose built theatre though staffed by friendly and helpful voluntiers I believe. Well worth a visit.

a good theatre, some big rooms. it is near to the swimming pool so you should check that out too. they serve half decent snacks and food and expensive beer. the shows i have seen there have all been first rate. it is bigger now than the last time i went, it just seems to keep growing. there is a glass walled cafe that gives a good view of the beach. the acoustics in the performance rooms are excellent. if you havnt been to the theatre for a while go here, you wont be dissapointed.

great theatre, one of the best in wales, everything from the chuckle brothers to shakespeare and opera! plenty of live bands and comedians, great service and excellent facilities!
