Pianodrome are raising funds to create a warm, beautiful community hub in the centre of Edinburgh with our Pianodrome at its heart. The Pianodrome is the world’s first 100-seater amphitheatre made entirely from disused pianos. Since our first Pianodrome amphitheatre was built in 2018 we have continued to create unique playable, community-centred sculptures, activating them with hundreds of events and saving over 670 pianos from going to landfill.
Pianodrome now hosts two locations in Edinburgh. The first, a warehouse in Granton, houses our workshop and is the base of operations for our Adopt a Piano program. And now, with great excitement, we have moved our original Grand Pianodrome into the glorious St. Oswald’s Community Centre, a Victorian church in the heart of Bruntsfield.
With the building under community ownership, the St Oswald’s team has welcomed and supported us in realising our dream – we are so thrilled about our shared long term vision for the space as a hub for creative community. The opportunity to create a thriving jewel of connection and creativity in a central, accessible location is astounding and we are all in!
