Do you need a venue to celebrate a cultural or creative event or a space to perform in? If so, we’d love to hear from you… 

Every year we continue to grow opportunities for communities to deliver their own events and perform in our spaces. You tell us that having space to share stories, art, conversation, music and much more is vital to you and your community. We would like to provide the space for communities to share their history, culture, and their collective stories and welcome applications from all, no matter how you are defined. 

Events and performances will be programmed through our participatory budgeting model whereby all applicants vote on which application they feel best fits the brief. This is to ensure that our programme is democratically created by you, the community. 

Community events   

This year we are sharing our Glanfa and Cabaret spaces with you over three dates; both spaces are the perfect back drop for any event and come alive when communities programme and perform in them. 

Glanfa 

The Glanfa is our large public space in the south of the building and has held large events and banquets.

Cabaret  

Cabaret is a smaller, intimate space with its own mixed toilets, cloakroom, stage and bar area. 

Community Performance  

We love to fill the Glanfa public space with creativity and are therefore inviting artists and performers to take to our stage and welcome audiences to the building. 

On the first Saturday of the month, we are programming performances to welcome audiences to the show that day. Please note that we are only able to accommodate acts that do not need technical support. 

Please note: The Glanfa stage slots are offered on a no-fee basis.
