Venue info

Beautifully preserved, the beloved King’s Theatre is a treasured piece of Edinburgh history. Built as a variety theatre in 1906, the King's now presents a seasonal mix-bag of treats for the people of Edinburgh; in spring and autumn the King's is home to West End plays and touring drama, in summer Edinburgh International Festival, and in winter the ever-popular King's panto.  

Over the years countless legends of screen and stage have treaded the King's boards, from heroes of variety Rikki Fulton and Jimmy Logan, to superstars Maria Callas, Sir Sean Connery and Sir Ian McKellen. we defy anyone not to fall in love with the charm of this iconic venue.
