Aberystwyth Arts Centre
Canolfan y Celfyddydau Aberystwyth
One of Wales's largest arts centres, combining theatre, cinema and galleries, with views over the bay from the hillside.
The arts centre sits on the university campus on the Penglais slopes and is one of Wales's largest multi-purpose arts venues. It has a theatre, concert hall, cinema, several galleries and a ceramics collection, and it stages drama, concerts and film screenings throughout the year. The square in front offers wide views over the town and Cardigan Bay. Galleries are free to visit, while performances require tickets. It can be combined with the National Library of Wales, about 10 minutes' walk away.
