It has been announced that following sell-out seasons across the UK and internationally, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience – the multi award-winning immersive dining phenomenon – will return to Scotland in spring 2026.

Scottish audiences will soon get to experience Basil, Sybil, and Manuel serve up two hours of theatre, chaos and a 70s-style three-course meal in the most infamous hotel restaurant in British comedy history. 

The 2026 tour will include visits to The Scotsman Hotel, Edinburgh (16-19 April), and Òran Mór, Glasgow (21-23 April), followed by Forgan’s Broughty Ferry in Dundee (24-25 April), Forgan’s, St Andrews (28 – 29 April), with final performances at the Palm Court Hotel, Aberdeen (30 April-3 May).

Faulty Towers The Dining Experience first premiered in 1997 and came to the the Fringe in 2008. In 2019 in Edinburgh, the experience welcomed their one millionth diner.

Devised by Alison Pollard-Mansergh, Andrew Foreman and others, Faulty Towers The Dining Experience has hosted residencies in the UK and internationally since 2008, appearing in 43 countries and welcoming over a million guests.

The cast for the 2026 Scotland tour is set to include David Tremaine as ‘Basil’, Clare Noy as ‘Sybil’, and Simon Hourihan as ‘Manuel’.

Producer Jared Harford said, “It’s such a joy to be bringing Basil and the team back to Scotland. Scottish audiences have always had a special affection for Faulty Towers The Dining Experience, and after such an incredible 2025 celebrating 50 years of Fawlty Towers, we can’t wait to continue sharing the laughter, chaos and community spirit that make this show so special.”
