ABERDARE GUIDE Independent ideas for your day out

A booked show or film in Trecynon / ABERDARE

Coliseum Theatre

Let a performance or screening give the day a definite destination. The Coliseum’s programme spans different audiences and genres, so choose the actual event first and build food or a park visit around it. This is an especially useful indoor option when its dates fit, rather than a building to arrive at expecting continuous entertainment.

Before you go

The Tuesday box-office opening is not a daily show timetable. Check the performance start, running time, age guidance and the journey home before booking.

Visiting with children
Choose a show or film with appropriate age guidance and length. Ask about tickets for babies, pushchair storage and any relaxed performance, rather than assuming every production suits younger children.
