Nightlife Spot: Clwb Ifor Bach

The Welsh Club is a very established and well respected club. It has an amazingly eclectic array of nights playing everything from motown to punk. It also plays host to a lot of accomplished live acts.

Clwb has three floors all usually playing different styles. Floors 1 & 2 are quite small but there is still plenty of space to sit down and relax or get up and boogie. Floor 3 is quite large and can easily fit 300 people or so and also plays host to a lot of live bands.

Tuesday is Rebel Rebel and Rock Inferno, clwb's very own rock night. The music is quite hard but the atmosphere is very friendly and there are quite a lot of people who like to make an effort. If you can call fishnets, eye make up and black nails making an effort, and that's just the boys! If you like punk, glam rock and metal this is the night to let loose and descend upon town in full goth/cyber punk glory.

Wednesday is Cheesy Club downstairs and Popscene on the top floor. Cheesy Club has a Motown & Funk flavour and has to be said, is one of the best nights in Cardiff. The music is stunning and the atmosphere is always warm and friendly, with everyone out to drink, dance and have a good time.
