During your stay you might wish to take your children (or yourselves) to the cinema or theatre. We therefore thought a bit of local information like this might help you plan your stay.
Cinema
Swansea's main cinema complex is the Odeon [UCI] at Parc Tawe, City Centre - 25 mins drive.
We recently watched Oliver there and it was great. For real 'West end' standard, you will need to visit the Wales Millenium Centre in Cardiff Bay (65 mins drive), or Bristol Hippodrome (1 hr 20 mins drive). However these both put on some great shows and having watched Miss Saigon at the Wales Millenium Centre, and Starlight Express at Bristol we can recommend these. Also try Cardiff New Theatre.
Concerts / Music / Art Galleries / other general
As well as some of the above the Millenium (Rugby) Stadium, Cardiff International Arena (CIA) as well as the St Davids Hall, Cardiff also have some great events including classical or pop concerts, plays, and conventions, etc
