About Sin City
Sin City is a live music venue in City Centre, Swansea with a standing capacity of approximately 750. Contact the venue for their technical specification and backline.
Sin City books Rock, Metal, Indie, Drum and bass acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Swansea venue directory.
Sin City is Swansea's long-standing rock and alternative club, a two-room venue at 14-16 Dillwyn Street in the city centre (SA1 4AQ), opposite the Potters Wheel just off the Kingsway. Both rooms have a stage, full lighting, DJ facilities and a big in-house PA, and the programme runs the full alternative spectrum — live bands from rock and metal to indie, with club nights spanning drum & bass and beyond (its 'Monsters of Rock' nights are a regular fixture). With a capacity around 750 it's one of the largest dedicated rock venues in south-west Wales, a proper gig room for both touring and local bands rather than a BYO space.
