Glamorgan have played at the SWALEC Stadium since 1967 having previously staged games in the Welsh capital at Cardiff Arms Park, next to the Millennium Stadium. The development of the Welsh National Stadium - now the Millennium Stadium - led to the transfer of the cricket ground into the recreation ground, north of Sophia Gardens at the end of the 1966 season.
"Sophia Gardens (Welsh: Gerddi Soffia), currently known as SWALEC Stadium (Welsh: Stadiwm SWALEC) under a naming rights deal, is a cricket stadium on the west bank of the River Taff in Cardiff, 1.6 kilometres (one mile) north of Cardiff Arms Park. It was named after Lady Sophia Rawdon-Hastings. Daughter of the 1st Marquess of Hastings and wife to the 2nd Marquess of Bute, Lady Sophia was concerned to provide open space for recreation in the rapidly expanding city in the late 19th century, in which her husband was heavily involved. The area is currently owned by Cardiff City Council". Text Source: (
