Well their news was certainly worth waiting for, if true, as it was an announced yesterday at the annual Wales SciFi convention that the DW Experience may be relocating to another part of Cardiff with news that it'll be even bigger and include the latest 'carousel' TARDIS console room mostly associated with the 12th Doctor. The current Experience closes its doors next week. So a potential reopening elsewhere in Wales is great news. Apart from the relocation, the news could also indicate that the 13th Doctor could be getting a new console room.

Glad we aren't losing it completely, if it turns out to be true

If it comes to Manchester I won't have to book a hotel to go (that's both good and bad .) but if it stays in Cardiff it's a great excuse for another trip. I'll be happy as long as it doesn't disappear into a warehouse forever (lost and forgotten). Cheers Tony

Didn't we already know it was going to relocate when it was announced the Experience is closing. I think we were all hoping, but it wasn't confirmed. I was a little worried that it would be closing for good.

Didn't we already know it was going to relocate when it was announced the Experience is closing. When it was first announced that the current location lease was up and to expire there was mutterings from the council of willing to find another Cardiff location for them yes. I'm not sure if anyone on the BBC Worldwide side of things confirmed anything, but they didn't deny the council's statement upon the announcement.

I've been a few times to it now and each time I've been I have struck up at least three long conversations with complete strangers from different countries from North America, South America, mainland Europe, Australia and each person or group have said that their visit to the Experience was their main reason for coming to the UK, the filling wrapped in the bread of Cardiff, London, Liverpool and Stonehenge. It certainly had the pulling power and no mistake.

I see. Still speculation. I hope it moves to Manchester. Much easier to get to & better than anywhere in Wales IMHO.

(moving it to London would be better for me)

I didn't get to Cardiff when I was over in London a couple of weeks ago. I'll just have to make another trip when it moves!

I am thrilled to say I'll be at the Experience on Saturday, the last day! If there is any further news of relocation (or anything really), I'll post it here.
