The reason why i have chosen the CIA because my daughter went to see a mcfly concert there and she said it was phoenominal. Every time i go to see a concert at the CIA it feels like im at the front no mater where i am

The Cardiff International Arena (CIA) is an excellent venue for people to enjoy a wide range of genres of music. Young or old, most nights of the week you can be entertained by some of the best acts in the industry past and present. The venue is large and whether you are seated or standing you can guarantee a good view of the performers on the stage as well as good sound. The CIA is central so is ideally located for the public to access from near or far. The staff are friendly and always willing to assist. Has to be by far the best venue in South Wales for music.
the cia brilliant

The Cardiff International Arena is a fantastic concert venue. Its big enough to cater for all the live bands that play there with an excellent seating area so the stage can be seen wherever your sitting. awesome sound system great location and friendly staff. All the great and big bands play here.Tickets are very reasonable depending on who you want to see and its very close for public transport.

Hi Guys
I think the CIA is a great place for live music and the variety of artists who appear is fantastic. It's great to have a place for top artists to come to our Capital which isn't too far away for many of us to have to travel to see them.
Good on ya CIA. Keep doing the great job of bringing the variety of artists and events to our Capital City.

Even tho this place is a pain in the butt to find ( its not sign posted at all) it pulls all the big names and is a great venue. Intimately sized. \\th ebars are always busy, the staff are really help full, although the door staff treat you like youre a convict..... and how many times do tickets need checking??
ONLY problem, its looking old now and parking is a complete nightmare. The nearby NCP must be avoided at all costs ... it took 3 hours to get a parking ticket and to get out after the gig.

Not the real CIA

As expected
The CIA is your run of the mill arena located in the centre of Cardiff. It plays host to all the touring stadium bands, conferences, exhibitions etc. Holds up to 8000 for an all standing show. The sound is terrible as are the queue's at the bar.
