No Seating capacity info found.

Located in the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff, Wales, the Pavilion was builtin 1951 for the Festival of Britain. It served as the boxing and wrestling venue for the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games. This info from Wikipedia.

The building would go on also to host many concerts on through the 70's, but in January 1982 it's roof collapsed from a heavy snow. The building was demolished.
