Pitlochry Festival Theatre
About
Pitlochry Festival Theatre, perched on the edge of the River Tummel in the Scottish Highlands, has been the artistic heartbeat of Pitlochry since its opening in 1951. With a 544‑seat auditorium and a 175‑seat studio, the venue hosts a wide range of performances – from sweeping musical productions to intimate plays – and runs an intensive summer repertory season that showcases a variety of plays in quick succession. The theatre’s clean, modern interior is complemented by an 11‑acre site that includes the newly refurbished Explorers Garden, now re‑opening in April 2026. Visitors and locals alike enjoy a bar and café in the main building, scenic Highland scenery, and a range of workshops, talks, and community events. Whether you’re a theatre enthusiast, a family seeking a cultural outing, or simply looking for a memorable evening in beautiful surroundings, PFT offers world‑class productions in an unforgettable setting.
