Eden Court is a large theatre, cinema, and arts venue in Inverness, situated near the banks of the River Ness. As the largest combined arts centre in Scotland, it serves as a modern hub for performance and culture, having undergone a major extension and complete refurbishment.
The site uniquely incorporates the historic Gothic Bishop's Palace into its architecture. Originally opened in 1976, the venue has a significant legacy, providing a modern performance space for the Highland Region. Today, its distinct cinemas and theatres are named to honor the city's lost historic venues.
Visitors can enjoy a variety of entertainment across two auditoriums and two dedicated cinema screens, including independent and foreign language films. The building also features performance and dance studios, a restaurant, and a bar, offering a complete cultural experience in an award-winning setting.
