   We've been to this venue a number of times over the years, but I've been remiss in leaving a review. Having visited the centre to see Warhorse yesterday, itself a stunningly ambitious and superbly crafted and choreographed show, it's just worth mentioning that the Wales Millennium Centre is a fabulous and beautiful building - inside and out - and the auditorium is incredible with fantastic views and audio and lighting. Just a delight to visit.

   I got there early with my sister, staff great directed to the relevant place. We were able to get a drink and have a sit down for a bit. Been there for cabaret and the other shows there brilliant highly recommend. Only downside is if you drive everyone tries to get out straight away and they tend to get stuck in the parking part across the street

   Perhaps this is a tad unfair but I was only allowed into the front of the Centre, or was it the centre of the front? All doors to where the punters sit to watch performances were locked. I asked a member of staff if I could have a look but he refused. I joked that what I'd seen so far was so good it could've been built in England. Lead balloon time. Lighten up little Welsh man, okay, you weren't amused but a deafening silence would've been better than the response you gave. Coming over the border? Don't. We'll sing you away. Keep a welcome in the hillside, keep a welcome in the Vales, I may be back one day.

   Ten theater was absolutely stunning! I mentioned how much of an art work the theater was to a staff member and they were kind enough to give me a brief history on it. The auditorium is massive and I did hear someone mentioned how they were far away but that they felt as if they were close.

   We went here yesterday (Saturday) to watch The Book of Mormon. It was our very first visit and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was easily accessible by train and bus and very well placed. Excellent architectural design and detail, professional, welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable staff, amazing theatre auditorium. Available spaces for eating and drinking and lounges during intermission. Don't forget to check out the theatre gift shoppe for some interesting items. If not busy, the helpful staff can tell you more about the theatre and give you info about their theatre tour offerings. Tips: the ground floor toilets could get very crowded with long queues so try to get there early enough. If you need temporary storage for your bags/luggage, there's a Premier Inn just across the road (via the Stasher app). Hot drinks not allowed inside the theatre for safety reasons. If you need a quick charge your phone, there is a table in the dining area near area A with sockets.

   I have been to see a few shows now at the WMC and always enjoy it. It is one of my favourite arts venues. The architecture is beautiful, the seating in the theatre is very comfortable in comparison to other venues and provides a good view, staff are friendly and it just has a nice vibe to it. I went to the Llais festival and had a wonderful day listening to different talks, music, immersive art installations and wandering round the exhibits. Lovely to see a real eclectic mix of music too, with soul/rap, Welsh male voice choir, orchestral and indie. The Death songbook with the Paraorchestra, Charles Hazlewood, Brett Anderson and Gwenno was brilliant although a little short (the audience clearly wanted more!). We prebooked parking in the Q park next to the venue which made it extremely easy to park up and scan our ticket. Will definitely go back, love it. Toilets at the venue were lovely and clean. A couple of coffee shop/bars in the venue. The vegan mixed berry muffins in one of the cafes were delicious.

   Beautiful place! I would definitely recommend you come here if you get the chance. Me and my partner went here for a free interactive experience that accompanies ‘The boy with two hearts’ stage production and thought it was well crafted and informative. The centre itself is huge! And such a famous landmark in Cardiff Bay which should be visited even if you do not intend to watch a performance.

   Visited to watch the lion king with my family. Amazing show in a very good theatre. Seats were comfy enough and set out for optimum viewing of the stage. Bars and shops had a good choice of drinks and snacks to enjoy throughout the show. The lift for disabled and elderly access to the upper levels i don’t think was enough for the amount of people requiring use. One group ended up back on the fourth floor twice where we were waiting as the lift seemingly had a mind of its own. Would definitely watch another show here in future

   It was one of serene experience at the millennium centre. It's close proximity to mermaid quay easily accessible through public transport makes the place more approachable. Once you walk down near the bay area, there are quite a bit of boating options. Depending on what kind of boating interests you can choose one. The mermaid quay has a lot of eatery options available. If you are traveling by public transport from Cardiff central to Cardiff bay the bus number 6 shall be useful. A good destination to spend time. Have a lovely time.

   Gorgeous venue amazingly clean, toilets are very well kept. We saw the Lion King which was amazing and well worth the 2yr wait thank you Covid! So why four stars? Seating is extremely uncomfortable. Although padded seats they offer little in way of support and the seat squabs are very short. Also we were there on one of the hottest days of the year and heat was stifling, surely this venue has air conditioning if not an investment should be made or the theatre doors where stewards are based, should of been opened to allow some airflow especially after a global pandemic.
