Last gig was in May and no gigs are planned so it will be 12 months with nothing,unless they quickly organise one before this May.My point is they have had some fantastic gigs in the place but for some reason have FAILED to bring in ONE group in a whole calendar year.

There is one major element that alone will attract promotors and the big names, and that is MONEY!

It may well be that Venue Cymru is unable to make the financial guarantees that today's artistes demand. 

Once one passes Rhuallt Hill it is easier to go to Manchester or Liverpool, and such places are a much bigger attraction to them than Llandudno.

I wonder if the management are afraid of booking a one-night gig in the Arena and later find they have to subsequently turn down a three-day conference with hundreds of delegates wanting to stay Tuesday evening – Friday morning in a local hotel.

Surely,  it's as Yorkie says, it's the money.  If it was commercially attractive, promoters would put on "gigs". The mainstream theatre caters for a wider and, arguably more affluent, market.

Probably referring to Dawn French on the 15th & 16th June.  Not my cup of tea but good to see them getting a North Walian to appear there.

Dawn French will be appearing in the theatre for two nights and was announced a while ago.

This seems to be referring to a gig in the Arena next door.
