This year’s Award’s Dinner will be held at the
Principality stadium
The Principality Stadium is next door to the Parkgate Hotel
Facts:
56,000 tonnes of concrete and steel went into creating the Stadium in a construction project that ran between 1997 and 1999 on the site of the old National Stadium.
To make the best use of the site space available, the design for the Stadium saw the orientation of the main bowl area move through 90 degrees to run North to South.
Since opening in June 1999, the Millennium Stadium has welcomed, on average, over 1.3 million visitors per year.
Sporting the first fully-retractable roof in the UK, the venue is at the leading edge as a multi-purpose, multi-faceted event venue
Evening:
We will start with welcome drinks pitchside at 6.45 and a tour as we step behind the scenes of Principality Stadium and follow in the footsteps of rugby heroes.
Experience the thrill of a Head Coach team talk in the home changing room before entering the players tunnel and making your way down to the hallowed turf.
Stop off at the Ray Gravell Press Conference suite, as you walk the famous halls and explore the magnificent facets and features that make Principality Stadium one of the most impressive icons of modern Wales.
Our expert tour guides will take you on a journey, sharing fun facts and insights from the stadiums’ history of events
The tour will end at your awards dinner location for seating at 7.45pm
