Wales’ Principality Stadium at 25: ‘The Eras Tour’

Date:

It was 25 years ago on 26 June when the then Millennium Stadium was officially opened in the heart of the Welsh capital. To the Swifties generation it is hard to envisage the Cardiff skyline not pierced by its iconic white masts.

Since 1999, the stadium has hosted global sporting events, from Six Nations Grand Slam showdowns, FA Cup finals, World title boxing bouts, a Rugby World Cup final and a Champions League final.

It has also been transformed for some of the biggest names in the music industry; the Rolling Stones, Madonna, the Spice Girls, Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen to name just a few.

Here we look at 25 memorable moments as the Principality celebrates a quarter of a century.
