Atrium, Cardiff

The Atrium is an educational complex on the University of South Wales campus in Adamsdown that combines a renovated former BT office building with modern extensions. A glass-covered walkway connects the sections and creates a unified space containing a 180-seat theater, television studios, sound recording spaces, and a cinema.

The site opened in 2007 as an expansion of the University of Glamorgan and grew with the addition of buildings ATRiuM 2A in 2014 and ATRiuM 2B in 2016. These phases reflect the university's ongoing investment in media and arts education infrastructure over nearly two decades.

The facility serves as a hub for media and performing arts education, with spaces that students and the public actively use for theatrical performances and creative projects. The studios and theater reflect how the institution supports hands-on creative work in the community.

Visitors can explore the site and attend various arts and media events held throughout the year open to the public. Checking the events calendar in advance helps visitors plan their experience and make the most of what is happening during their visit.

The site served as a filming location for a British television series episode, making it of interest to fans of that production. This connection to television history adds a cultural dimension to the complex beyond its primary educational purpose.
