Overall Rating
Excellent
McEwan Hall is an ideal venue. A lot of work has gone into making this old building accessible. The accessible seating offers a brilliant view of the stage. It feels intimate for listening to conversations with authors or jokes from your favourite comedian. Accessible toilets are modern and roomy. Staff are on hand to help at any point during your visit and there are ramps in all the right places. Enjoy!
