| For me without a doubt its Cardiff. Cheaper and better hotels, easier access for disabled, for dropping coach loads off, for drinking just outside the ground eg Wetherspoons and City Arms etc. The whole atmosphere was better at Cardiff.

There was some people on those mobility scooters causing mayhem on the upper tier as they were able to get lifts inside the West end columns up to the mezzanine!

| took a "49" busload to cardiff twice - but insufficient interest in Edinburgh --so whilst Big Stu still had the numbers --a lot werent interested (for whatever reason !)
Maybe a "poll" would clarify !
Personally having been to both --no contest
CARDIFF is so compact and has all the facilities CLOSE to the venue!

| Also with the credit crunch this year many would have gone but could not afford it, not so much the tickets as they are great value but the travel and accomodation.
Yes Cardiff has good bars nearby but if you came out of Murrayfield and turned right on the main road there were loads of pubs. If you went left then it's mainly residential.
Let's face it both are great venue's and both offer something different, I wouldn't complain about either to be honest and am already looking forward to next years weekend.

| Edinburgh!
Been to Cardiff but for another occasion and I can't really see where my young un would find owt as enjoyable as those hills and open spaces for him to play on!! Yes Edinburgh is cold although I've been many times before and have yet to have anything but glorious sunshine there!!

| Defo Cardiff - much more atmosphere with all fans milling around city centre before/after. Better stadium too - only issue was closed roof.
Would expect them to return to Cardiff in future but will prob also go to other major cities like Dublin. Would be very interesting to see this event go to a southern UK city also at some point.
