Know its a bit late now but have you try`d camping at pontcanna fields ? its in the centre right next to glamorgan crickets ground surrounded by fields and only 10 walk to the Stadium , i know they have touring caravans there and thought camping as well ????? lovely place and nice area.

Hi all, How does speedway compare to other sports in the city mmmmm They are all different, the stadium holds 72,500 and if the expected attendance is over the 45,000 mark they will close a lot of main streets and the whole city centre becomes a big party, with the Cup Final and the play-offs they sort of split the fans into 2 areas, the castle area and the prince of wales area even though there is no real segregation it seems to work with not much trouble, causing trouble in cardiff city centre at football is a stupid thing to do as every street seems to have about 5 camera`s and the police are expert at dealing with anything. With the speedway everyone it seems is there just to have a great time no teams against each other, its about riders , ok you have your club favourites and the brits but i get the feeling its about having fun, everyone having a great time and celebrating speedway, its a bit like a ice hockey crowd that sort of atmosphere, if the sun is shinning then the resturant area (old sams bar area) is great , near chip alley around the corner there is a new place called the brewery qtr (hard rock cafe) lots of bar and resturants and if you haven`t been down the bay yet it worth a look ,lots of bars on the seafront sitting outside , resturants shops maybe worth a visit at lunch time maybe , there`s also the millenium centre (opera house) there , new welsh goverment building, boat trip around the bay, its only about £4 taxi fare from the city centre - 5 min away. i just hope the sun is shinning a big crowd turn up , i just hope one day maybe eventually we could fill the millenium , the whole city really changes and puts the whole eveny to another level. Dont mention the wales rugby games they are a pain in the arse, when wales play its about everyone getting way too drunk all morning and evening of all ages not very nice at all they get about 30 - 50 arrests. Im off on holiday tomorrow for a week so roll on the 3rd be good and enjoy yourself Im off on holiday tomorrow so roll on 3RD June

Apologies if this has been discussed before, being a newbie to speedway only because the GP is in my hometown Cardiff, would hate to see it leave love the whole atmosphere all weekend.

Ever been to Hampden park ? i went there to see Eminem not impressed at all, its about 10 miles from the city centre and not many pubs about , the surprising thing was no drinking in the streets at all, the police clamped down on anyone drinking cans in the street so hampden ?????? NO

With wembley being finished this year would the GP possibly go there in the future ??? , i would prefer cardiff with the bars , hotels, resturants etc all close near the stadium, as far as im concerned wembley im sure the stadium will be amazing but can you imagine the prices for drinks and food inside, also what about the night before the GP and the whole day drinking and partying wembley only has a few pubs , 1 hotel and not exactly a nice place to visit is it. i say keep it in Cardiff

Prince of wales (weatherspoons) has lots of screens now lots of new bars in cardiff try the Brewery quarter across the road 15 bars and resturants
