Staff Consultations
Vue has confirmed that consultations with staff members are underway. Employees have expressed concerns about potential redundancies. A company spokesperson stated: “We can confirm that our site at Stadium Plaza will be closing later this month. We are consulting with our Cardiff colleagues, who are our priority, and until this point, we will continue to provide cinemagoers in Cardiff the very best big screen experience.”
