Fruitmarket Gallery
Located beside Waverley Station on Market Street, the Fruitmarket Gallery is one of Edinburgh’s leading spaces for contemporary art, offering free admission and a welcoming atmosphere for all. Originally built in 1938 as a fruit and vegetable market, it was transformed into a gallery in 1974 and has since hosted groundbreaking exhibitions by both Scottish and international artists. Following a major refurbishment completed in 2021, the venue now combines its light‑filled main galleries with an expanded warehouse space for large‑scale installations, alongside a bookshop, café, and dedicated learning areas. The Fruitmarket is known for its adventurous programming, commissioning new work, and fostering dialogue between artists and audiences through talks, performances, and events. Its location, architectural character, and commitment to accessibility make it a vibrant cultural hub where art is experienced not just as an object to view, but as a conversation to join, right in the heart of the city.
