Cardiff is the bustling centre for creativity in Wales, being host to a vibrant and growing scene of art and culture. Chapter Art Gallery for 50 years has been at the heart of this growth – Chapter is one of Cardiff’s most special venues, and if you’re looking to experience some of the best the city has to offer, then this is the perfect activity to add to your stack.

Where can I see a film in Cardiff

Head down to Chapter arthouse cinema, just under two miles from Cardiff central station, for a bit of a different experience.

Chapter acts as a multi-purpose venue, host to an independent cinema, a café and bar, a community arts hub, a workshop venue and even has its own community garden – it’s a space for people from all backgrounds and all interests. If you’re looking to sit back, relax and take to the big screen, then watch a film from their wonderful selection of independent directors from all over the world. Admirers of the arts can head to their gallery space, where they are host to fascinating visual exhibitions, from the most loved local artists to showing work from the other side of the world.

At the centre of these spaces is their café and bar venue, where you can relax with locally sourced coffee and delicious food, a great way to unwind before watching a film. Their community space runs a wide variety of programmes and workshops for those looking to take up a new skill, hobby or just want some fun – if you’re feeling inspired by the film you just watched, then taking an acting class, or if you’re in the mood for a dance, then take one of their tap dancing classes.
