Get ready to trade the comfy theatre seats for air guitars and sweaty singalongs, because Ffwrnes Rock Weekend is landing in Llanelli with a wall of sound and some of the UK’s best tribute acts. This March, the Ffwrnes Theatre is tearing up the rulebook and going full rock ‘n’ roll. Forget Shakespeare – we’re talking screaming vocals, pounding drums, iconic riffs and more flannel than a 1994 MTV Unplugged set. 😎
It’s all happening on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th March 2025, and it’s a standing gig, so wear your gig boots, stretch your neck muscles, and get ready to rock out like it’s Donington ’92. 💥
📍 Venue: Theatrau Sir Gâr – Ffwrnes Theatre, Llanelli
🎫 Tickets:
🔥 FRIDAY 7TH MARCH – THE GRUNGE GODS & FOO FIGHTING FURY
🎤 NIRVANAH – The UK’s Ultimate Nirvana Tribute
Smells like nostalgia, mun. Nirvanah bring all the raw, unfiltered energy of Kurt, Krist, and Dave to Llanelli – complete with flannel shirts, smashing drums, and a set that’ll take you right back to that first spin of Nevermind. Expect the anthems:
🎵 Smells Like Teen Spirit
🎵 Lithium
🎵 Come As You Are
🎵 In Bloom
🎵 Breed
🎵 Heart-Shaped Box
🎵 Plus some deeper cuts for the true fans!
These boys don’t mess about – it’s all the angst and attitude of Nirvana, channelled through a tribute that lives and breathes the Seattle spirit.
🎸 THE FOOS FIGHTERS – Foo Fighters Tribute Extraordinaire
Following that grunge baptism comes the mighty Foos Fighters, bringing a stadium-sized performance to the Ffwrnes stage. These lads don’t just play the songs – they become them. You’ll be screaming “There goes my hero!” at full pelt by the second chorus, guaranteed.
Setlist faves include:
🎵 Everlong
🎵 The Pretender
🎵 Best of You
🎵 Times Like These
🎵 Monkey Wrench
🎵 Learn to Fly
🎵 My Hero

With Grohl growls, guitar gods, and singalong choruses big enough to raise the roof, it’s a Friday night face-melter.
⚡ SATURDAY 8TH MARCH – AC/DC UK BRING THE THUNDER!
⚡ AC/DC UK – The UK’s #1 Tribute to Rock’s Wildest Band
Get ready for riffs louder than your nan’s hoover and enough electricity to power the whole of Carmarthenshire. AC/DC UK are bringing the classic sound of Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras in one explosive performance. 👨🎤⚡
These guys nail it – from Angus Young’s duckwalk and schoolboy uniform to the iconic tones of Thunderstruck, it’s all here. Expect a full-throttle setlist like:
🎵 Highway To Hell
🎵 Back In Black
