CLIC Battle of the Bands 2010

Millennium Stadium

Saturday 18 September

Now in its second year, the CLIC Battle of the Bands 2010 will take place at the Millennium Stadium on Saturday 18 September as part of Skills Cymru , Wales’ largest ever skills and careers event. 20,000 people are expected to attend over three days.

Five finalists will take to the stage in the 250-capacity Presidents' Lounge to be judged by a panel of industry experts. The winners will then play a 20-minute set on the main stage down on the stadium’s pitch in front of all event attendees.

As well as the title of CLIC BOTB champions, the winning act will also bag a list of prizes that will only grow as the date approaches, including:
