Museum of Welsh Cricket
In 2018 the CC4 Museum of Welsh Cricket at Sophia Gardens became the first fully-accredited cricket museum in the UK. It opened in 2012 as the first sports-specific Museum in Wales and features innovative interactive displays, as well as commemorative films and displays celebrating the long and proud heritage of cricket in Wales.
In 2020 the Museum also launched its new website as well as a series of Podcasts. In addition to being open to the public and hosting school parties and other organised groups, the Museum stages a series of Winter Talks with guests including players from past and present.
The Museum was created by Glamorgan Cricket in partnership with CC4 – the Cardiff-based multimedia company and e-learning specialists. Situated on the first floor of the National Cricket Centre at Glamorgan Cricket’s headquarters at the Sophia Gardens Cardiff, it was developed with the help of generous financial support from the Heritage Lottery Fund, plus other bodies including Visit Wales, with a series of fascinating displays created which celebrate the long and rich heritage of cricket in Wales besides helping to bring history alive.
