Assembly Roxy, Roxy Downstairs

Assembly Roxy is a unique venue situated in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town.

The historic former church building houses three main spaces all equipped with modern sound and lighting systems. Roxy Upstairs is a theatre space with raked seating for up to 169 audience members, while Roxy Downstairs is a more intimate studio space seating up to 60 people. The largest is Roxy Central; a truly unique and beautiful space, with original features, a stage and a bar area. It is a flexible space seating up to 250, and where we hold a wide variety of events, ranging from theatrical productions, ceilidhs, weddings and corporate events. Assembly Roxy is also home to the Snug Bar, a cosy space to relax before, during or after an event, and where we also host intimate events, readings, live music and performances in a relaxed atmosphere.

The Roxy is well known for its use during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and is now open all year round.

Our intimate studio space, ideal for work-in-progress performances, Roxy Downstairs comes fully equipped with a house rig and PA, and has raked seating for up to 60.
