The Royal Scottish National Orchestra will launch Eden Court’s 50th Anniversary celebrations in April, mirroring the opening performance in 1976.
Over the course of the year, audiences will have opportunities to engage with a diverse array of events, culminating in December with Eden Court Stories, a dynamic exhibition led by Jacqueline Briggs.
Chief executive Rebecca Holt said that Eden Court belongs to everyone in the Highlands. This anniversary is a celebration of the past fifty years, but it’s also an open invitation to join us in imagining the next fifty.
