Frommer's Review

This 1,900-seat theater, formerly the Art Deco Empire which dated to the 1920s, was reopened in 1994 after serious renovations in time for the Edinburgh Festival (hence the name). Located on the south side of the city, about a 10-minute walk from the Royal Mile and right near the University of Edinburgh Old Campus, it hosts the national opera and ballet, as well as touring companies and orchestras.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
