Millennium Stadium (Cardiff)
 Millennium Stadium (Cardiff) ... and is used primarily for rugby union and football home internationals. It was the largest Stadium in the United Kingdom with a capacity of 74,500, but relinquished this distinction when Old Trafford was expanded to 76,000 in 2006, and slipped down to third when Wembley Stadium was completed in 2007. The Millennium Stadium is owned by Millennium Stadium plc which is a subsidiary company owned by the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU).Newest Review: ... be seen from around the town with its giant 'spider legs' visable form miles away! The stadium itself partly runs alongside the river and parlty alongsie the side streets of the town. The cardiff train station is literally a stones throw away form the stadium as well as the bus station and hotels are dotted about everywhere. Once at the stadium my tickets made it clear which gate I had to ... more ... enter (the gates are clearly marked for all to see) and before going through the gates there is a bag search which is done calmly and quietly, safety is of the highest importance at the stadium. The staff on the turnstiles are really friendly and show...more |

The 74000 capacity Millennium Stadium was built at a fraction of the cost of the new Wembley Stadium in London, and based on cost alone, should be inferior. Not so! Situated slap bang in the middle of the city, the Millennium Stadium is in my opinion, the best rugby venue of all the 6 Nations teams. The stadium is comprised of 3 main levels - lower, middle and upper, each offering a different perspective on the action that unfolds on the pitch. Truth be told, there is not a bad seat in the entire place, and I've sat in quite a few of them! If you're in the lower tier, it's close to the action, enough to hear the tough tackling taking place just metres from ...

The stadium itself is impressive, from unobstructed views from any seat to the retractable roof allowing ...
