Edinburgh Festival Theatre

About this place

Thanks to the huge number of festivals and performances that come to Edinburgh each summer, there are plenty of venues in the area. Edinburgh Festival Theatre is one of the largest, hosting performances such as opera, orchestra concerts and theatre. It wouldn't be a surprise to see a concert performance of the works of Vivaldi, Mozart and Haydn but the following week there might be a stand-up comedian, an illusionist, a play or some contemporary pop music. The glass front makes the bar a good place to sit and people watch and there are plenty of good restaurants and pubs nearby for before or after your show.
