I have been calling to Brynamman Public Hall Cinema since the late 90s with my family and we think…read moreit is wonderful, nothing like the faceless and characterless cinemas found in towns and cities. We have always been welcomed by the volunteers who run the cinema and hall and really appreciate the service that they provide, my father, 2 daughters, wife and occasional friend I take with me would not dream of going anywhere else even though it's twice the distance of the cinemas in Swansea. The one annoying feature of the cinema is not with the organisers but with some of the visitors who with blatantly drop their rubbish on the floors between the seats when there are easily accessed bins in the same room. If you want a relaxed and very enjoyable atmosphere then pay a visit to Brynamman - they even have ice cream/sweet ladies!! A top of the range night out and there's a chip shop a few yards away for after the film. Lovely people, lovely environment as well as so many other wonderful and timeless qualities which are sadly lacking in today's society.

The hall was opened in 1926 with funds from the Coal Board & contributions from the people. It is one of Wales's oldest independent cinemas. In August this year (2010) they upgraded the viewing facilities so they can show 3 D films. The interior has also all been recently refurbished and looks clean and fresh. The hall not only shows films, I went to watch the Christmas Pantomime there this week, The scenery and performance was brilliant. They show all the top films, run by locals for the locals. Car parking behind. A hall where the hold dance lessons,a snooker hall and other community events, is under the main hall.

This is a fairly modern cinema, located on Aberavon seafront. It has 6 screens (I think!), with all…read morethe latest movies being shown. The seating areas in each of the screens are fairly small, and sometimes the seats do sell out. However you can book your seat beforehand, either on their website, or via a phone call. The ticket prices are slightly lower than the cinemas in Swansea - but it's still not a cheap day out for a family. The whole of the Aberavon seafront is under redevelopment, and it's actually quite a nice area to visit. If you fancy a walk either before or after the film, the promenade is flat, and easily accessible for the disabled.

There have been a lot of concerns and complaints regarding the merger of the confectionary/ticket sales desks and, if you haven't pre booked your tickets online (come on, it's 2010) this can add considerable queuing time to your experience. What I do like about the place though is that it's a no-fuss situation and queues etc are managed well (except this time where I spent £40 on tickets for nobody to check them before i entered the film, but we'll let that one slide and hope everyone's as honest to pay to see the films as myself) Tickets are a little bit pricey but I think we can expect that from most cinemas these days, and considering the proximity to the restaurants on Wind street, the Odeon is beginning to feel SO ten years ago...

The Grand has hosted some fantastic shows, as well as concerts and also has an Art Wing which as well as hosting some great exhibitions has lunchtime performances and a Comedy Club on a regular basis.

It's an old, slightly falling apart Victorian theatre - you know the kind, gilding throughout, red velvet seats (bit shabby though, now), stalls, circle, upper circle Now that I'm a super mega star in London, Swansea Grand Theatre seems to be a quaint relic. The programming here is not great, big touring musicals and big name comedians mostly - as well as the panto of course. Which Neighbours star will feature this year? There is an Arts Wing upstairs which allows for slightly more interesting studio performances of smaller shows. Another strong memory for me was ballet classes here on a saturday morning - entering through stage door and scrambling through all the back passages, past dressing rooms and stage exits to get to the dance studios. Felt very showbiz as a kid. The Footlights cafe bar downstairs is alright, but because the theatre is located right in the middle of the city centre, you can find lots of places to enjoy a pre/post show drink/bite.

Downstairs there were chairs grouped around tables and I saw people enjoying the Shakespeare while at the same time enjoying their wine. A little bar is on site selling spirits, wine and coffee. They might sell beer too but I never look for it so I can't remember seeing it. There was a cafe next to the bar but it was closed during the intermission, it looked cute though. It was my first time at the Arts Centre and I'll be going back now that I know what an impressive and diverse line up it has. There is a small car park across the road but we found parking on the street as it was after 6pm.

I've been lucky enough to see a few great acts there - Jo Brand was my favourite to see, she was hilarious. My husband has just been to see Fish (remember him? From Marillion??). There's always a good atmosphere whenever I've been there. They also show films there, usually weekly. These showings tend to be quite quiet, and it's cheaper than going to any other cinema around here. Well worth a visit - keep an eye on their website or ask to be added to their mailing list. For the more famous names, they sell out quite quickly, so book sooner rather than later!

Service is generally friendly and helpful with good concessions like Ben and Jerry's ice cream now available.
