Entertainment and Nightlife

Nightlife in Dunfermline is excellent, and there are numerous bars and wine bars, cafes, restaurants, live music venues and three nightclubs.

Carnegie Hall is a beautiful 1930's theatre based in the heart of Dunfermline in central Scotland. One of four Fife Council theatres, Carnegie Hall offers a popular and diverse programme of music, drama, dance, film, comedy, children's entertainment and pantomime.

And of course Edinburgh is only half an hour away by train on the Fife Circle - with more trendy bars, hot-spots and night clubs than any other city in Scotland. The nightlife scene in Edinburgh is vibrant -- whatever you're looking for, you'll most certainly find it here, and you won't have to go far. Expect old-style pubs as well as cutting-edge bars and clubs. Live music pours out of most watering holes on weekends, particularly folk, blues, and jazz.

Well-known artists perform at some of the larger venues. Superb theatres and cinemas – and of course the world famous Edinburgh festival, Festival Fringe and Military Tattoo each year in August.
