Paul Carrack Edinburgh Tickets

The Edinburgh Festival Theatre, situated on Nicolson Street, was known previously as the Empire Palace Theatre which first opened in 1892. After several closures, once in 1911 due to a terrible fire, and some time later as a bingo hall, the newly re-furbished theatre opened as the Edinburgh Festival Theatre in 1994, with a seating capacity of 1,915. Some of the most prominent names in show business, such as Laurel and Hardy, Margot Fonteyn, Morecambe and Wise, have performed there. Now it is predominantly used for opera, ballet and musical events.
