Cardiff road closures for Harry Styles’ Principality Stadium shows

To ensure concert-goers can get to and from Principality Stadium safely, there will be a full Cardiff city centre road closure in place from midday on Tuesday, June 20 and Wednesday, June 21.

These road closures will be in place until midnight on both days.

The M4 motorway and surrounding trunk road networks are also expected to be very busy as a result of the Harry Styles[1] concerts.

Please be mindful that the network will be busier on the 20th/21st of June with #HarryStyles[2] performing in the Principality stadium.

Expect #M4[3], #A48M[4] & #A4232[5]🚗to be busier.
