What happens here
- Welsh Rugby Union internationals (Six Nations and autumn).
- Wales national football matches.
- The 2017 UEFA Champions League Final – one of multiple major one-off events.
- Major concerts – the city-centre location and retractable roof make this one of the most flexible large concert venues in the UK.

What’s it like to work here
The combination of city-centre location (literally next to Cardiff Central station), retractable roof and varied event mix makes the Principality one of the most reliable UK venues for multi-event casual work. A typical work-year includes Six Nations weekends, autumn internationals, NFL preseason matches in some years, Wales football matches and a long summer concert season.
