An Lanntair

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An Lanntair is an arts centre in the town of Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The centre is home to a cinema, and art gallery. Previously located in the Town Hall, in September 2005 An Lanntair moved to its current new building overlooking the harbour. This building features a 50-seater restaurant, art gallery, shop, and auditorium seating over two hundred. The auditorium houses the first cinema in Stornoway since 1995.

An Lanntair is the principle venue for arts and entertainment events in Stornoway and regularly hosts performances by musicians as well as plays, talks, and films. It was a key venue for both the Royal National Mod in 2005 and for the Hebridean Celtic Festival in 2006.

Its name is Gaelic for the lantern.
