LIVE events are to return to Barry’s Memo Arts Centre with a jam-packed programme for the coming months. 

Due to the coronavirus pandemic and ensuing lockdowns there hasn’t been a live event in the Memo since March, 2020, but now – in line with Welsh Government Guidance – live events can return after almost 18 months.

How is the venue operating?

  • Track and trace will be in effect.
  • Face coverings are to be born while entering or walking around the venue unless exempt.
  • Hand sanitising stations will be available, with enhanced venue cleaning and ventilating in place.
