Geraint Thomas Velodrome - Visitor Experience
Would be able to visit and inspired to participate and delight in the success on a local and international stage through cycling.
Would be encouraged to remain active and see both the mental and physical benefits to engagement. They could also share their stories of how the velodrome has inspired them and the pride they feel in the city.
Para Cycling is a fantastic and important opportunity for people with disabilities having significant mental and physical benefits.
There is significant economic benefit to sports tourism, which we are able to see success from when events are held at the national facility. However to enhance the visitor experience and ensure there is a reason to visit would welcome even more.
This would be year 1 only - with growth year on year
We would like to launch an enhanced and improved visitor experience capturing the impact and outcomes from the activity that takes place in the velodrome. This would start at 2025 and look forward. Over the coming years we also want to look back and capture the history of the velodrome, offering a great additional reason for people to visit the Wales national facility, Sports Tourism is an ever expanding opportunity to welcome visitors to the city with significant economic impact.
We would encourage school tours once the project develops
