What Swansea.com Stadium does

Swansea.com Stadium, formerly Liberty Stadium, is a 21,000-capacity multi-purpose sporting and events venue located in Landore, Swansea, Wales. Opened in 2005 on the site of the former Morfa Athletics Stadium, it serves as the home ground for Swansea City AFC and Ospreys Rugby while operating a commercial events business across 34 spaces, including 22 Executive Boxes and 11 named function rooms ranging from the 14-guest AU Vodka Lounge to the 1,200-guest Day's Suites. The venue's product surface combines physical infrastructure (pitch-view suites, private bars, 700+ parking spaces, 10 EV chargers, accessible facilities, air conditioning) with built-in AV technology (ceiling-mounted LCD projectors, drop-down screens, plasma TVs, video conferencing, PA systems, mood lighting, complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi).

The business generates revenue through per-event space hire, per-person packaged offerings (Meetings for Change from £32+VAT, Proms from £30.50+VAT, Banquets from £40, Christmas shared/private parties, weddings, summer parties), and catering delivered in partnership with Levy UK + Ireland (a Compass Group business). Distribution is hybrid: direct sales via a dedicated events team and website (swanseacityevents.com), channel listing on Lime Venue Portfolio, and accommodation referral partnerships with Village Hotel Swansea and Mercure Swansea Hotel. Customer segments include corporate conferences, education proms, weddings and celebrations, seasonal parties, and funeral receptions across South and West Wales. The venue operates under Greengage ECOsmart Silver sustainability certification (2025) and integrates Klimato/Foodsteps carbon-labelled menus. It is privately held and operated as part of Swansea City AFC, with a core staff of 22 supplemented by Levy's event operations workforce.
