The Glanfa is our largest free-performance space and is available to hire for large events such as private receptions, dinners, fashion shows, exhibitions and launches.


Glanfa’s unique setting will give any event an enviable edge with its bay side backdrop and location; nestled between the iconic Senedd and Pierhead building.

The light and airy foyer is surrounded by sustainable hardwoods sourced from Welsh forests which give the space a wonderful warmth and energy.

Glanfa can provide a dining area or a glamorous awards ceremony for 350 guests, a drinks reception for 500 and can even be transformed into an amazing film location.

Doctor Who, Gavin and Stacey, Children and Need and S4C have all filmed here.

The foyer can be accessed from both ends of the building and has accessible toilets, lifts to the upper levels and great views from the overhead balconies.
