Arena Pontardawe is a community-based social enterprise organization,
consisting of a large number of societies, groups and individuals from
within the local community who have identified the need for a fully
accessible, multipurpose community venue.
The Arena venue will be an all-weather, purpose-built, medium-sized complex,
which has been designed to accommodate a range of events and activities that
require specialized facilities not normally provided for within existing
venues. It will include an
all-weather outdoor arena, plus educational, training, business and
exhibition facilities.
The aim of the enterprise is to develop Arena Pontardawe as ‘The Landmark’
and thriving ‘Centre of Excellence’ in the Swansea Valley, which will assist
with social, economic, cultural
and environmental regeneration.
The Arena Committee has members who are senior officers and consultants
within a number of significant areas such as Planning and Civil Engineering,
Environment and Sustainable Energy, Administration and Management, Marketing
and Public Relations. It also has members who are executive officers of
local and national Equestrian Organizations and of National and
International Arts Organizations who regularly organize major events and
have successfully developed International Exchanges and links via music
festivals and visual arts projects.
