The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art (Modern One) is an iconic setting for parties, dinners, wedding receptions and private celebrations. The perfect setting for any occasion, it boasts intimate spaces, a world-renowned collection – and a wonderful lawn and terrace - an ideal place for you to meet, greet and get together for alfresco celebrations this summer.
A summer affair to remember
Our terrace and lawn make a wonderful event space and with delicious dining, informal or elegant, we’re the unequivocal choice for all manner of private celebrations in Edinburgh.
Whether it’s a milestone birthday, with dinner, a postponed wedding reception with Champagne and canapés or a glamourous garden party, we love nothing more than helping you to create unforgettable memories for you and your guests.
A summer get together
Our recently refurbished café offers a versatile space with its interiors inspired by the surrounding gardens and with its large expanse of doors and windows which open directly onto the terrace and walled garden – it is a true blank canvas, perfect for an informal indoor/outdoor affair with friends from far and wide or an evening soiree for a select few.
