The first concert at Swansea's long-awaited new arena has been pushed back for two weeks due to Covid and "international measures still in place".
Rock duo Royal Blood will no longer be the first act to perform at the new multi-million pound music and events venue, aptly named "Swansea Arena". Instead of appearing on Tuesday, March 8, as announced last November, their gig will now take place on Saturday, March 19. It means John Bishop's Right Here Right Now show will officially open the arena on Tuesday, March 15.
Management at the arena said delaying the inaugural performance was not a decision that had been taken lightly, but was "logistically out of everyone's control".
