This August, step into our modern-day Agora nestled within the French Institute on the Royal Mile, brought to life by X MUSE Vodka.

The signature bar of Edinburgh Art Festival, experience artistic interpretations in liquid form with an exclusive cocktail menu crafted by some of Edinburgh's finest mixologists. Each serve is thoughtfully inspired by artworks from our spiritual home, Jupiter Artland.

The bar is anchored by a radiant amethyst installation, curated by Vadim Grigoryan, inviting connection and reflection in equal measure. Join us for conversation, contemplation, and celebration.
