Eden Court has announced a vibrant and star-studded spring and summer season set to light up 2025 in style.
Following a milestone year that ended with the coveted Venue of the Year award at the MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards, the Inverness-based cultural hub is keeping up the momentum with a programme bursting with variety and flair.
From legendary musicians and top-tier comedians to gripping drama and magical family theatre, Eden Court is bringing a packed schedule to audiences in the Highlands and beyond.
Bryan Adams, Francis Rossi of Status Quo, King Creosote, Paul Young and Capercaillie will take to the main stage, offering iconic sounds across generations.
The OneTouch Theatre will pulse with the energy of acclaimed musicians including Anna Massie, Kim Carnie, Siobhan Miller, Lisa McHugh and Sian.
Theatre lovers can rejoice with an exciting mix of musicals and adaptations lighting up the stage.
Highlights include the cult Scottish classic Restless Natives, the ever-outrageous Rocky Horror Show, and the West End wonder The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.
Family shows are firmly on the agenda too, with Pirates! from Scottish Dance Theatre, the explosive Ministry of Science Live, the hilarious The Dinosaur That Pooped A Rock Show, and the lovable Bing’s Birthday.
Drama fans will be drawn to the poignant Irish production Myra’s Story, the bold and witty Through the Shortbread Tinfrom the National Theatre of Scotland, and the suspenseful stage version of The Girl on the Train.
Classical and opera lovers are also well served with Scottish Opera’s The Merry Widow, Scottish Ballet’s take on Mary, Queen of Scots, and concerts from both the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and the Scottish Ensemble.
The comedy line-up is stacked with household names such as Jason Manford, Jack Dee, Russell Kane and Dara Ó Briain.
Mhairi Black’s debut OneTouch Theatre appearance has already sold out, marking her shift from politics to performance with style.
Summer brings the return of Under Canvas, Eden Court’s signature outdoor music festival in July and August.
Now in its seventh year, this celebration of folk, trad and contemporary sounds continues to evolve and impress.
Last year’s line-up included favourites like Old Blind Dogs, Gnoss and Hannah Rarity, and this summer’s full programme will be revealed in May.
Chief Executive Rebecca Holt described the new season as “a celebration of creativity, connection and the arts,” adding that Eden Court is excited to welcome audiences to experience its most dynamic season yet.
With a major new funding commitment from Creative Scotland and ambitious plans already in motion, 2025 is shaping up to be another standout year for this Highland gem.
Eden Court’s spring and summer programme offers something special for every taste, whether it’s a night of rock nostalgia, a magical family outing or a thought-provoking play.
