Millennium Stadium
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
The Millennium Stadium was a venue in Cardiff, Wales.
History
It was built in 1999 and replaced the old Cardiff Arms Park. Jack Harkness noted that the new Stadium was built at a 90 degree angle to the old one, which aligned it with the Cardiff Rift. (PROSE: Pack Animals)
It was used for the last live performance of the rock band Unattended Article in 2000, which was hijacked by The Mondegreens. (COMIC: We Will Rock You)
In 2008, Torchwood Three used the Stadium to house dinosaurs which had come through the Rift. (COMIC: Rift War! Part Four: Dino Crisis) Later that year the Stadium housed the MonstaQuest creatures and their creator, Gareth Portland, as he tried to use people's emotions to destroy the city.

Behind the scenes
- The corridors underneath the Millennium Stadium have appeared in episodes of Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures as locations such as the Stormcage Containment Facility (Series 5 and 6), van Statten's base in Utah (TV: Dalek), and the UNIT base under Mount Snowdon (TV: Death of the Doctor).
