Principality Stadium debuts Wales' first frictionless Amazon stores

Cardiff’s Principality Stadium has introduced Wales’ first frictionless retail experience, launching "Now in a Minute" stores powered by Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology. Debuting during the FA Community Shield on August 16, the system allows fans to bypass traditional checkout lines by using sensor-based automation to track items and process payments.

Developed alongside hospitality partner Aramark UK, the new outlets offer a curated selection of matchday essentials, including pies, confectionery, and beverages. The inventory is designed to rotate according to the specific demands of the stadium’s diverse event calendar. This initiative follows a broader modernization effort at the venue, which recently saw the installation of over 20 self-service eBars to streamline guest traffic.

Tomos Grace, Chief Commercial Officer at Principality Stadium, described the rollout as a push toward enhancing the fan experience through greater convenience. Tom Ford, VP of Marketing, Strategy and Culinary at Aramark UK, noted that the technology allows staff to shift focus from transactional duties to delivering more personalized service. The project marks a significant shift in how Welsh venues manage high-volume crowds during major sporting and entertainment events.
