Edinburgh Castle is perhaps one of the most special venues that the city has to offer, and is a great backdrop to celebrate all of life's moments – whether that’s a party with family, a wedding, a corporate event, or anything in between. There is unlikely to be anything more special that can rival this castle in Edinburgh, which sits at a high point overlooking the city. Your guests will be greeted with a piper's welcome and flaming torches at the drawbridge, for a glimpse of the magic that will await them inside.
Edinburgh is a great city to host your upcoming event in, as it's easily reachable by car, plane or train, and has plenty more to offer your guests as a city, if they're travelling from further afield. The events team will work with you to make sure your event details are polished to perfection, so that your guests will be talking about this special event for a long time to come.
There are two banqueting packages for you to choose from when booking an event at Edinburgh Castle, and so, you can choose from several sample menus and floor plans to fine tune your event. The Queen Anne building has a dinner capacity for 120 guests, and reception capacity for an extra 50. This venue in Crown Square is designed for evening banqueting, and your guests will be able to enjoy pre dinner drinks in the courtyard. Smaller venues include the Jacobite room with a dinner capacity for 100 guests, with the Redcoat Room adjacent, so you can use the two together if you need more space. The Gatehouse Suite has capacity from anywhere between 22 and 35 guests, and so its a great choice for meetings and seminars.
