Meconopsis moment!🪴🪻
Our gorgeous Meconopsis plants are ready for sale - grown from seed collected from our very own Explorers Garden, so they’re home-grown heroes with serious flower power.
You’ll find them front of house in our nursery plant area, ready to put down roots in a new home.
Numbers are LIMITED, and once they’re gone, they’re gone… so pop by soon before there’s none left!

"Today is a very special day" 🥳
Our Artistic Director, Alan Cumming shares a special 75th anniversary message - with three exciting announcements to share!
After 75 years of stories, imagination and theatre in the hills, we can’t wait for what’s next as Pitlochry Festival Theatre’s new bold chapter is about to begin. It all starts this Saturday as Alan’s inaugural season kicks off with the opening of Broadway and West End hit musical ONCE.
What are you most excited for this year?👇

A story shaped in the Himalayas, unfolding in Pitlochry 💙
It’s Meconopsis Month at Pitlochry Festival Theatre - and just beyond the excitement as the auditorium prepares to open Season 2026 later this month, a different kind of storytelling is taking shape.
We’re home to one of Scotland’s largest collections of Meconopsis, the legendary Himalayan blue poppies. These dreamlike blooms, with their silken sky-blue petals and golden hearts, bring a glade glowing with colour, shimmering in dappled light.
But these are not just flowers - they are stories.
Each one is descended from wild plants that grew high in the mountains of the Himalayas, carried across continents by human hands, and now carefully tended here in Pitlochry.🪻
To walk among them is to step into a world both wild and cultivated - a bridge between the Himalayas and the thoughtful, deliberate care of our team.
🎭 Visiting for a show - or simply passing through the Scottish Highlands? Take time to wander our garden and experience it for yourself.
