VENUE Cymru has announced it they will reopen its doors to patrons on Friday, January 21.

Situated in Llandudno, the venue had been recommissioned in by Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board in April 2020 in order to provide additional bedding during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic.

It was then used as a vaccination centre from May 2021, resulting in no events being hosted there until Christmas 2021.

Restrictions returning after Christmas saw it close its pantomime season earlier than anticipated.

With Wales under Threat Level 2 restrictions, the decision has now been taken to trial the return of events, with Peppa Pig performances this weekend being limited to 200 people, with social distancing in place.

The Welsh National Opera (WNO) has announced it will be cutting back on performances due to financial pressures.

The company has said it will not be touring to Llandudno or Bristol early next year because of "increasing financial challenges".

Both the Arts Council of Wales and Arts Council England have cut the amount of money they give to WNO.

Company bosses said they needed to "introduce substantial budget efficiencies".

It means proposed performances at The Bristol Hippodrome in February 2025 and Venue Cymru, Llandudno, Conwy county, in May 2025 will not go ahead.

The funding received from Arts Council England (ACE) was cut by 35%, which led to WNO performances in Liverpool being cancelled in 2022, while operas in other English cities went ahead as planned.
