Wolfson Lecture Theatre at The Royal Society of Edinburgh
About this space
Wolfson Lecture Theatre
As the largest and most versatile space at RSE Venue, the Wolfson Lecture Theatre has been the stage for countless inspiring lectures, performances, and conferences in the heart of Edinburgh.
Refurbished thanks to the generosity of the Wolfson Foundation - founded by Sir Isaac Wolfson, born in the Gorbals, Glasgow - this space continues his legacy of supporting education, science, and culture across the UK.
With seating for up to 144 guests, the Wolfson blends scale with character: a professional yet welcoming environment designed to put ideas centre stage.
What sets it apart today is its seamless hybrid event capability - built into your event experience - allowing you to connect in-person and online audiences effortlessly.
From keynote lectures and AGMs to panel discussions, training sessions, and performances, the Wolfson Lecture Theatre is the ideal setting for events that need to make a big impact.
