Venue Cymru Arena

[wrex]

No desire,no clean beaches,no gardens kept and certainly not many conferences or gigs to attract people into town,yet last nite all they could say is Llandudno is important to tourism,am i aloud to say b--l--ks.Only one agenda in CCBC and that is to try and revive Colwyn Bay.

Tickets are now on sale for the Mike Peters/Alarm Gathering 2015 at VC which will be taking place from 30th January - 1st February 2015.  It's not cheap as it appears you have to book for the whole event rather rather than picking and choosing the bits you want to attend but it always sells out anyway.

For those too tight to pay there's a sing-a-long walk along the promenade scheduled for the morning of Feb 1st which I assume you can join in for free (assuming the promenade hasn't been washed away by then).

What else has been in the Arena and can we find out how many days a year the Arena is used.Saturday night would make a good nightclub night.

The Arena has another booking,Robert Plant in November ,we have James Blunt next month so last May(2013) was the last concert,not bad a gap of 14 months without anybody staying in our HOTELS,oh well at least it will only be 3 months inbetween gigs this time. I wonder how many of the 2,500 at both of these gigs will be staying overnight and generating income for the hotel they stay in,the pub they have a drink in and the restaurant they eat in,CCBC get your act together and do better.None of us know what obstacles CCBC put in the way of a promotor.

Llandudno's Venue Cymru will host a major new snooker tournament - the World Grand Prix - in March 2015.

What a great idea, kids have nowhere to go and that would be ideal.
Trouble is the inmates in the two blocks of flats would no doubt complain about noise.

When the new theatre in Bangor is complete is Venue Cymru going to take a big hit,not sure what the capacity of the brand new venue is but it could hit Llandudno hard.

You're constantly telling us there is nothing on in Venue Cymru so by that logic a new theatre in Bangor should have no impact on Llandudno at all.

Ghosthouse Cymru is crap to be fair. The snooker thing is good for the town, but they need to get some bands in that appeal to somebody under 60

Peter Andre is playing the arena in October and Robert Plant in November so that will be two gigs in consecutive months  D).

Would you believe it UB40 now playing the night after Robert Plant,you don;t gat one for months then two in a week,happy days.It seems there is a new man in charge of the Arena and it is certainly paying off,good news for the hotel buisness.

Maybe we will get a music act whose best days weren't twenty+ years ago at some point?

[wrex]

DaveR it taken long enought lets be grateful for whatever we can get..
