Step into the future of broadcasting at BBC’s newest and most advanced studios.
Ever wondered how sound effects are added to your favourite podcasts? Or what it's like to read the news? Experience an award-winning, behind-the-scenes tour of BBC Cymru Wales, led by our friendly guides and British Sign Language (BSL)/English interpreter Tony Evans.
The BSL/English tours are standard tour prices and pre-booking is advised.
Please note that BSL/English interpreted tours are prioritised for Deaf people and carers.
On your journey you will:
- Visit one of the largest BBC newsrooms, packed with cutting-edge technology including augmented reality, virtual reality and robotic cameras
- Take a sneak peek at TV galleries and other broadcast facilities
Each walking tour will last approximately 90 minutes. As a live and working broadcast centre, no two tours are the same, so every visit will be unique.
