The Dylan Thomas Theatre is a thriving community theatre in the heart of the Maritime Cultural Quarter and SA1 Development area of Swansea.

The Brangwyn's mix of neoclassical and Art Deco architecture coupled with the colourful British Empire Panels provide a striking setting to a range of events including concerts, conferences and weddings.
Had our first take away Sunday takeaway dinner today. Without any doubt the best Sunday dinner I've ever had. I'm a vege and had the mushroom wellington. It was fantastic. Top quality, great value and plenty of it.

Visited here on Saturday January 25th.Outstanding night of comedy song and magic,Top of the bill was John Owen Jones and the west end star was superb,ably backed by The Fly Boys,Noel James,Shellyann,Sophie Evans,and Soul Illusion but it was the incredible voice of thirteen year old Gracie Jayne that stole the show, Gracie is surely destined to be a world star.Incredible value for money and would definitely return. You can find all the entertainers on U Tube and it is well worth a look.

Patti Pavilion is a landmark building, which was previously owned by Dame Adelina Patti, who in the 1870’s was the most famous opera singer in the world. Adelina built the original pavilion as her ‘winter garden’ which she used to entertain guests. In 1917, Adelina donated the pavilion to the people of Swansea.

I do enjoy coming here. The programme of events and cinema is excellent. Something to suit many. From jazz concerts to dance to live screenings of ballet and opera. Plus a good selection of foreign language films. Such a pleasant atmosphere where one can have a drink or coffee and a snack beforehand. The drawback is that for popular films/events, you need to book as soon as the programme comes out.
