Music / Comedians / other. 20 years ago could have fitted in the Swans crowd at some matches 🙄 Saves driving up to Cardiff- anything booked yet. I cant see what's lined up - opens 2022 | | | | |

Swansea's new 3,500 arena. on 10:18 - Sep 15 by Batterseajack | Don't get too hung up on capacity. 3,500 is plenty big enough and a fairly typical size for entertainment venues around the country. Its about striking the right balance, go bigger, and your limiting the use of the venue to a few times a month. Promoters also take on more risk with bigger venues, if they can't get a sell out, they're liable to bigger losses. This means less risky/diverse/niche acts and less performances over the course of the year. Swansea also doesn't really have the infrastructure for 20,000 people to descend onto the area all at once without causing disruption. Finally, the LED lights on the façade will be decent. |
The city seems to be able to cope with 20,000 crowds for football matches. | |
