The Weston Link can be hired in conjunction with the adjoining Galleries providing your guests with the opportunity to enjoy an exclusive private view in the presence of one of the expert curators. Large scale cocktail receptions for 1000+ guests can be accommodated by hiring the Weston Link, Royal Scottish Academy Building and National Gallery of Scotland i.e. the whole Mound Complex.
