Where to watch the Wales v France game?

Where will you be watching the Wales v France game? I live in Cardiff and have heard the Millenium Stadium will be showing the game for free. Should be good!

Yep, they're opening up the MS. More details soon:

I watched the 2005 Grand Slam outside City Hall and it was a fantastic atmosphere - like a party. I'd recommend the MS, just because it's somewhere different, and the screen will be huge!

Will they close the roof?

I would've thought so. The roof was closed for the gig last weekend so they'll probably leave it that way for the week.

And its gonna be free now that does seem like a fantastic idea, will the bars be open as well

Bedford, I would've thought so, they'd be foolish not to allow sales of food and drink there.

I have a 21 month old son who I haven't taken to the rugby yet and this might be just the opportunity I think. So far he's more interested in Mr Tumble! Let's see if a stadium atmosphere can do the the trick.

It'd be a good introduction CT. You should do the stadium tour one day too. I took a visiting friend around once and we really enjoyed it.

I'm travelling back over the bridge (well, under it technically) from Bristol to watch in in Newport with friends and family.

Probably go to the Pen and Wig - failing that Lloyds

Wed till Sunday I'm working so will watch it in Surrey.

Note to those going to the MS. You need to collect your free tickets:

The Pen & Wig's a great call for international matches

Just tried ticket master no joy, so hope not sold out already as only other way is in person from gate 3 today.

Sorry Cari, just checked the MS site again and the article was on the 10th, so tomorrow should be today??

Hmm strange...have you tried now? I don't know....maybe you have to pick them up in person? You can always ring them to check?

according to the telegraph they've had to up the ticket limit the interest has been so good, might be more like 50,000 expected which is a bit nuts!

So a bit pointless me turning up on the off chance Saturday then

Wow, what a response, been trying since 9.30, still no luck............arse

Just heard online ticket allocation has sold out. It's proving more popular than anticipated. There's still 20'000 available but they're going fast....

Poopie, only from the stadium itself left are they?

Flippin eck was going to travel over on Friday.

crap, wouldve been the first visit for my two kids aswell, hope they put some more up...........................pleeeeease

They can have up to 50'000 people in there - they're restricted cause they want everyone to get a good view. 50K would be awesome. Keep checking the websites APM, they might issue more.

I yam, I yam!!!!!!!!

I hope they do issue more.

On the couch at home with my family.

would be incredible if the stadium had 50,000+ fans watching the match on a giant screen, even though the boys are playing thousands of miles away im sure they'd really appreciate the fans support by attending the home ground to see the game

I'll be watching at home with my 3 month old daughter who, unlike her mother loves a game of rugby...

I hope you're all going to do this (I am!)

I would advice any undertakers amongst us to seriously think this over before getting dressed for work Friday.
