Venue Cymru Arena

[wrex]

Im sure the management are quite happy to just have the theatre busy,i don;t think they can cope with too much on and they still get paid weaher the Arena is used or not this is why private promotors should be allowed to take over the Arena and bring more people into town.

Venue Cymru and Theatr Colwyn should be let out to private promoters.

In Southend-on-Sea, the Cliff Pavillion and Palace Theatres were let out by the Council. The losses have been stemmed, rent is paid to the council and, crucially, THEY'RE MAKING A PROFIT as shown on their accounts at Companies House.

But, if you look at the sheer amount of productions and events going in, it really is no wonder.

Bit difficult comparing Sahf End with Llandudno.  The catchment area for S on Sea is 20 times that of this area.

Oh s***e.  I must be going senile.  Actually, I applaud your efforts, but am just not interested in the present format of the Extravaganza!

Were your strenuous efforts directed elsewhere, you could experience magnificent rewards, more valuable than those I suspect you get at the moment, and with much less frustration!

Yorkie i would;nt do it if i did;nt enjoy it believe me.Being born in Llandudno i was one who applauded Margaret Lyons and John Boyle for bringing some life into town being a 25 year old when it started i was so glad to see the town come to life  so im glad to help keep it going,obviously my concern is not having the right people to continue it,i will keep looking.

Jessi J in Colwyn bay Arena,Tom Jones also booked hence the complete and utter emptiness of the Llandudno Arena,need i say anymore,the whole place is being ignored while they put every ounce into Colwyn Bay.

I suppose it's the 21st C equivalent of the old Summer Season entertainers used to do in the '50s and '60s.

I have started contacting music promotors to find out why Venue Cymru Arena is being ignored and will let you know as soon as i get a reply,12 months without one gig for the youth of this town is beyond,the theatre can attract all top shows and comedians and to be fair so HAS the Arena but for some reason nothing for 12 months and nothing on the cards.

Cast were there in December.

But I take your point - they are hardly for the youth

[wrex]

Cast played in the Hall upstairs which holds 1,000 all standing and i think a local hotelier put that on.

Simple minds were there in april, not for the really young though but Mumford and sons played they were ace

I thought simple minds manage the place.
