Attend a concert at Usher Hall, Edinburgh's celebrated auditorium on Lothian Road. Settle in for classical music or a visiting pop or jazz act, in a hall known for its acoustics.
Full description
Usher Hall is Edinburgh's concert auditorium, best known for classical music but also hosting jazz, comedy and pop shows. Reviewers consistently praise the acoustics, the atmosphere and the helpful staff, and note that even cheaper seats offer a good view of the stage.
Concessions are described as quick and reasonably priced, and the venue has handled everything from Beth Hart concerts to orchestral evenings. One practical note is that bathrooms from the stalls are in the basement down winding steps, which may be awkward for some.
It suits couples and music lovers.
