First look inside transformed Plaza cinema in Port Talbot

These striking photographs offer a first look inside Port Talbot's transformed Plaza building - which now houses a theatre, gym, cafe, business hub, multi-purpose rooms, and a digital recording studio - and is set to open to the public very soon.

The Grade II listed art-deco building, which started life as a cinema back in 1940 and was a popular family-friendly destination for decades until its shock closure in 1999, will be re-launching as a community hub with a wide variety of facilities, events and opportunities for people of all ages.

Whilst the pandemic unfortunately slowed down construction work at the site - which was initially set to open to the public in 2021 - the end is finally in sight and people from across Neath Port Talbot and beyond will soon be able to walk through the Plaza doors for the first time in more than 20 years.
