What's On in Cardiff
Thursday 24 September 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Cardiff is turning up the volume on Thursday 24 September, with a night that spans arenas, intimate stages, and the warm glow of the Sherman. Whether you are after pop royalty, a raw indie discovery, or something that will make you laugh until your sides ache, the city has laid out a genuinely brilliant spread — so pick your adventure and get out there.
Highlights
Anastacia | Utilita Arena Cardiff — One of the most distinctive voices of the early 2000s brings her powerhouse catalogue to the Utilita Arena Cardiff at 6:30pm, and this is the kind of show that reminds you just how enormous those anthems really are when they fill a room this size. From 'I'm Outta Love' to 'Left Outside Alone', expect wall-to-wall singalongs and a performer who knows exactly how to own a stage. Check the website for tickets — but do not hang about.

Redwood City - Cardiff — For something altogether more intimate, Clwb Ifor Bach — Cardiff's beloved grassroots music venue — hosts Redwood City at 7:00pm, and at just £11 this is exactly the kind of night that reminds you why live music matters. Clwb has a knack for showcasing acts on the cusp of something bigger, and the low ceiling and warm crowd make every performance feel like a secret shared between friends. Get there early, grab a drink, and let yourself be surprised.

Flo & Joan - With Feeling — The brilliantly sharp and utterly irresistible Flo and Joan bring their new show 'With Feeling' to the Sherman Theatre at 7:30pm, and if you have never seen this musical comedy duo live then you are in for a genuine treat. Equal parts witty songwriting, deadpan delivery, and unexpected emotional gut-punches, they have built a devoted following for very good reason. Check the website for tickets — this one has all the hallmarks of a sell-out.
