Official state stadium of Wales
The Millennium Stadium is the official state stadium of Wales, built close to the river and a few hundred meters from the historic center of Cardiff. Both rugby, the most popular sport in the country, and football are played here. It has a capacity of 74,500 spectators, and was used for the finals of the FA Cup, the Carling Cup and the Community Shield when Wembley Stadium was being renovated.
