The Rolling Stones
A Bigger Bang in Cardiff

Tuesday August 29

The Welsh Watering hole is the Yard Bar & Kitchen 42-43 St Mary Street, Cardiff.

This is one of the main throughfares of Cardiff and only 5 minutes from the Stadium and the main railway station.  See the map below - X marks the bar.

They will be ready to receive us from Monday 28 and on the concert day itself.

The bar location for Stones fans is on the first floor where there will be Stones music.  Use it as a meeting place, eat, drink and be merry.
