Alexandra Head At Cardiff Bay Cardiff reviews by real event-goers

Review of The Streets

Review of The Streets

I have been wanting so see The Streets for such a long time and grabbed tickets back in February this year. Everything with Skiddle was easy from booking to entry - no need to 'dry my eyes'

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Tickets purchased did not reflect that gig closed gate at 7.30pm despite chemical brothers not playing till 20.25hrs

Arrived at gig at 20.00hrs and was declined entrance . Myself and husband gutted

Review of Scooter

Sound system wasn’t the best.. could hear everyone talking and not hear lyrics of some songs which was disappointing but scooter and all supporting djs were amazing 🫶🏼

Review of Scooter

Food prices were a bit on the high side, overall I enjoyed myself.

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Main act were amazing, but not enough facilities for a whole day event: poor quality food; no where near enough toilets; piles of rubbish as the bins were woefully insufficient; difficult to see/hear warm up acts.

Review of Scooter

Very good venue bit of a walk from the town centre 2 miles but was 12 pound in a taxi from cardiff central

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Great music and visual gig, let down by poor organisation on accessing the venue via the Barrage.

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Chemical Brothers never fail to impress, all the support acts were amazing, especially Erol Alkan and 2manyDJs, absolutely banging!

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Incredible weather for an outdoor gig in September in Wales! The Chemical Brothers set and visuals were fantastic.

Review of Scooter

Bloody amazing

Review of Alexandra Head At Cardiff Bay

Over crowded and over priced. It's a hideous tarmac car park with not a lot of space.

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Overall happy I went

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Crowded, place was too small for number of people, initially last entry was at 17.30(changed later to 19.00 but with no notification) with Chemical brothers playing from 21.30 which meant if you wanted to see them there was 2,5 to 4 hours waiting in fool sun with festival prize food and drink you had to buy if you wanted to just survive. Show itself was just 1.5 hrs which is pretty lazy and not worth the wait.

Brilliant time with my husband. Friendly people and fantastic venue. Will be back.....

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Music was fantastic. Some sound issues though - I don't think it's that well EQ'd for electronic music. Expect festival prices for drinks!

Review of Alexandra Head At Cardiff Bay

I wish I could give more stars for this event, but honestly the venue let itself down big time. For starters, the fact that the event I went to was from 1pm until 11pm and there were absolutely no seats or shade anywhere apart from the VIP upgrade area. The weather was so incredibly hot and the only place to sit down was on stoney tarmac that was covered in spilt food, drink, and who knows what else from days previous. The toilets were a nightmare and were by far the worst smelling toilets I've come across this summer having been to many outdoor gigs and festivals already. The pricing on food was obscene. £7 for plain chips, (£10 for the addition of cheese wtf?!) £7 for 4.5% cans of lager and almost £4 for bottles of water for example. I'm not sure who sets the standards for pricing at events like those, but it felt as though we were being extorted just because there were no other options. I would of given the music 5 stars but was reluctant because as another person wrote it sounded like there were some discrepancies between sets and at some points I could barely hear the main act at all. For a ticket that cost £50, I feel ridiculously short changed and would never go back there again.

Review of The Chemical Brothers

Great day all around. Great djs in support of the best electronic music in history.
