About the venue

The Freemasons Hall is located on George Street, in Edinburgh's New Town

The present Freemasons’ Hall was completed in 1912, replacing an earlier building that had been on the site since 1858, designed by the Scottish architect and Freemason David Bryce.

The grand Victorian building rises 4 floors, with a striking glass dome above, with notable features such as Robert Burns’ and King George the Sixth’s Regalia.

The venue is available for hire for weddings of up to 250 guests, and corporate events of up to 520 delegates.

Edinburgh Fringe

Due to its New Town location, Freemasons Hall has been used by different Fringe outfits over the years as a venue in August. It has been the New Town Theatre (venue 7), The Stand's New Town Theatre, and also plain 96 George St (venue 233) as part of a whisky tasting Fringe show in 2024.
