Description
Red hearts line the walls of the Eighteen 74 Fans' Bar & Cafe, where industrial meets football heritage in one of our most characterful party spaces. Those exposed steel beams and ductwork above your head? They frame a room that pulses with the same energy as match days, just channeled into birthday bashes, engagement parties, and corporate celebrations instead. We can fit 150 of your guests when everyone's mingling with drinks in hand, or arrange tables for 60 if you're planning a sit-down affair. The sleek bar counter becomes command central for your event, our bartenders serving everything from craft beers to cocktails while your guests spread out across the high tables and standard seating areas. Natural light pours through those oversized windows during afternoon gatherings, while evenings see the space transform under our atmospheric lighting. Sports murals wrap around the walls, telling Hearts' story since 1874, which gives your party instant talking points and photo opportunities. The industrial ceiling height means sound carries beautifully, whether that's your carefully curated playlist or the buzz of conversation as your celebration hits its stride. You'll find us right next to the Hearts Club store in the Main Stand, making arrivals straightforward for your guests. Free parking takes the stress out of getting here, and we're just a quick taxi ride from Princes Street if people are coming from the city centre. The space works brilliantly on its own for drinks receptions and casual parties, or we can use it as your pre-party area before moving into our larger Gorgie Suite for dinner and dancing. Our events team handles all the setup, from furniture arrangements to ensuring the bar's fully stocked with your preferred drinks selection. The urban atmosphere means this isn't your typical party venue, it's where football ground meets social hub, creating celebrations with genuine character.

Football matches draw thousands here at weekends, but step into our Gorgie Suite on a weekday and you'll find Edinburgh's most versatile event space ready for your celebration. This expansive room on the lower ground floor of the Gorgie Stand offers something genuinely unique: a blank canvas with pitch views that transforms beautifully for any occasion. We've hosted everything from corporate product launches to charity galas in this space, and each event feels completely different thanks to the suite's flexibility. The moveable partition lets us create two distinct areas when needed, perfect for cocktail receptions flowing into seated dinners or exhibitions with separate networking zones. Up to 600 guests can mingle comfortably for drinks receptions, while seated events work brilliantly for up to 500 people. Natural light pours in throughout the day, giving your event an energetic atmosphere that artificial lighting simply can't match. When evening arrives, our LED lighting system takes over, creating whatever mood you're after, from subtle elegance for awards ceremonies to vibrant colours for birthday parties. The room's pillars add architectural character without blocking sightlines, so every guest enjoys clear views whether you're screening presentations or watching live entertainment. Round tables and comfortable seating adapt to any layout you envision. We regularly configure the space for cabaret-style dinners, classroom setups for training days, or theatre arrangements for conferences. The pitch views through those windows add something special too, guests often pause their conversations to take in the stadium where Hearts have played since 1886. Getting here couldn't be simpler. We're in Gorgie, just a quick taxi ride from Princes Street, with plenty of free parking for those driving. Our events team handles all the technical requirements, from audiovisual setups to furniture arrangements, ensuring your celebration runs exactly as planned.

The Heart of Midlothian Museum
Reception 80

The Heart of Midlothian Museum offers something you won't find in any corporate boardroom or hotel function space. Your event takes place surrounded by over 140 years of sporting history, with championship trophies, vintage jerseys, and match-worn boots displayed in illuminated glass cases throughout the room. We've hosted everything from intimate board meetings to champagne receptions in this ground-floor space within the Gorgie Stand. The museum comfortably seats 30 guests for dinner or accommodates up to 80 for standing receptions. Round tables dressed in white linen fill the space during seated events, while our plush red chairs echo the famous maroon of Hearts. The polished cutlery and crystal glassware catch the natural light streaming through the windows, creating an atmosphere that feels both historic and refined. The memorabilia isn't just decoration, it becomes a natural conversation starter. We've watched business deals progress as executives discover shared memories of Cup finals, and seen wedding guests bond over stories triggered by the displays. The red and white colour scheme runs throughout, from the carpet to the carefully curated exhibits, creating a cohesive backdrop for your photographs. Being right next to the Gorgie Suite means we can easily combine spaces, perhaps using the museum for pre-dinner drinks before moving through to the larger room. The private entrance keeps your event separate from any stadium tours or other activities, while our air conditioning ensures comfort regardless of Edinburgh's unpredictable weather. You'll find us in Gorgie, with free parking for your guests and just a short taxi ride from Princes Street. The ground-floor location means no lifts or stairs to navigate, making arrival straightforward for everyone attending your celebration or meeting.

The Strongbow Legends Lounge
Reception 80

The Strongbow Legends Lounge wraps you in Hearts history from the moment you step inside. Red armchairs cluster around wooden tables beneath memorabilia from the 1998 Scottish Cup winners, creating conversation corners where business deals and birthday toasts happen with equal enthusiasm. We positioned this first-floor lounge in the Main Stand to catch maximum daylight through full-height windows. On clear days, natural light streams across the polished floors while your guests enjoy drinks from our private bar, tucked discreetly into the corner. The space holds 80 for standing receptions, though we find 40 seated guests creates the perfect atmosphere for those longer celebrations where everyone wants to catch up properly. Our events team arranges the furniture to suit your party style, whether that's cocktail tables scattered throughout for mingling or traditional rounds for sit-down dinners. The adjoining Heritage Lounge opens up when you need extra space, doubling your options without losing that intimate feel. We've hosted everything from milestone birthdays to corporate celebrations here, and the football memorabilia always sparks conversations between guests who might otherwise be strangers. The private bar means your group has dedicated service throughout the evening, with our bartenders mixing cocktails or pouring local whiskies as the celebration flows. Being in Gorgie puts you close enough to Edinburgh's centre for easy taxi rides, yet we offer free parking for those who prefer to drive. The Strongbow jersey displays and trophy photographs give your event a backdrop you won't find in standard function rooms. We think parties should have personality, and this lounge delivers exactly that, combining Hearts heritage with modern comfort in a space that feels both special and relaxed.
