John McIntyre Conference Centre
INSPIRED BY THE PAST, BUILT FOR THE FUTURE
Located at the foot of Edinburgh’s iconic extinct volcano, Arthur’s Seat, the John McIntyre Conference Centre (JMCC) offers flexible state-of-the-art facilities to make sure your conference or event is successful and inspiring. The main room can be configured as a single 300-seater conference room or split into two rooms for workshops or parallel sessions. Add four meeting rooms, two executive boardrooms, a lounge and bar, and you have a space flexible enough to meet any conference needs.
Please note: Additional charges may apply for certain seating arrangements.
We know everyone's accessibility needs are different, which is why having detailed, accurate information is so important. For this reason, we use AccessAble's trained surveyors to check out every single place in person. All information collected has been decided by their user community.
