Cardiff Arms Park

Cardiff Arms Park is one of the most historic rugby grounds in the world, set in the heart of Cardiff city centre on the banks of the River Taff and directly alongside the Principality Stadium. Home to the professional Cardiff Rugby side and the historic Cardiff RFC, known as the Blue and Blacks, the ground has staged top-level rugby since the 1870s and remains a cornerstone of the Welsh game. Its steeply tiered stands and central setting give it an intimate, atmospheric feel on matchdays.

With a capacity of around 12,000, the Arms Park hosts Cardiff Rugby's United Rugby Championship fixtures alongside Cardiff RFC matches, and has welcomed some of the biggest names in the sport over its long history, from Gareth Edwards and Barry John to Sam Warburton. Just a short walk from Cardiff Central station and surrounded by the city's bars, restaurants and shops, it offers visitors a genuine taste of the passion and heritage of Welsh rugby in the capital.
