An outstanding piece of modern architecture, opened in 2004 by Queen Elizabeth II, the futuristic Wales Millennium Centre is host to opera, dance and West End musicals throughout the year, making it a must see for those who like theatre. Entry is free throughout the year. While entrance to the theatre is charged, free live performances take place in the foyer every lunchtime at 1PM and before shows in the evening. It hosts the exhibition about Cardiff Bay's development that used to be housed in 'The Tube'.
