Reviews of The Point in Cardiff Bay
The Point venue information
Mount Stuart Square takes its name from Lord Mountstuart - MP for Cardiff from the Napoleonic period - and was at one time the wealthiest part of Cardiff controlling the export trade of Coal from Cardiff docks. The Point is the focal building in this quiet corner of the Bay. The church was built in 1900 to replace a temporary iron framed church, and was opened as the chapel of St Mary's. Later, in 1912 the church became a separate parish church under the name of St Stephen.
St Stephen’s church was deconsecrated in 1992 and was used by various associations as a community centre and theatre group until 2001 when it was purchased by its present owners, who wanted to create Cardiff’s premier live music venue.
It was beautifully restored in 2003, having retained and enhanced many of the architectural features and all of its rare stained glass windows, and was furnished with a fully operational permanent stage, lighting fixtures, in-house PA and projection systems.
The Point Cardiff Bay has played host in the last 3 years to some of the UK’s best local and international bands including – The Stereophonics, From the Jam, Manic Street Preachers, Steve Winwood, The Twang, the Super Furry Animals, Glen Tilbrook, Cerys Matthews, The Storeys, Roy Ayers, Candi Staton, Silver Jews, Nerina Pallot, Sandi Thom, Funeral for a Friend, Athlete, The Darkness and Asia – as well as diverse offerings such as Lightning Bolt, Seth Lakeman, Four Tet, Devandra Banhart, Robin Trower and Eddie & the Hot Rods - and continues to provide Cardiff and South Wales with the best choice for live music and events.
