Portobello Town Hall
Portobello Town Hall, a striking Neoclassical landmark on Portobello High Street, has been at the heart of Edinburgh’s seaside community since its opening in 1914. Designed by James Anderson Williamson, its elegant façade and spacious interiors have hosted generations of gatherings, from grand civic events to concerts, theatre, weddings, and local celebrations. Following a period of closure, the building is now enjoying a new chapter under community management, offering flexible spaces including a grand main hall and a more intimate upper hall. With its high ceilings, stage, and adaptable layout, it caters to everything from live performances and exhibitions to markets and private functions. Just minutes from the beach and well served by public transport, Portobello Town Hall blends historic charm with modern versatility, making it a vibrant cultural hub and a proud symbol of the area’s enduring spirit.
