Assembly Rooms, Category A listed building on George Street, Edinburgh, Scotland.
The Assembly Rooms features four main halls with high ceilings, crystal chandeliers, and ornate gold leaf details throughout its neoclassical Georgian structure.
Construction of the Assembly Rooms began in 1783 after architect John Henderson won a design competition, with the building opening during the Caledonian Hunt Ball in 1787.
The venue regularly hosts numerous performances and events during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, serving as a central location for theatrical and artistic presentations.
The Music Hall and Ballroom can each accommodate 750 guests, while nine additional rooms provide space for smaller gatherings between 10 and 120 people.
A £9.3 million renovation in 2011 integrated modern climate control and technical systems while maintaining the building's original Georgian architectural elements.
