So, in the past year we've been using venues such as The Tunnels, Peacock Visual Arts, Woodend Barn, The Lemon Tree and Musa - and we're now looking for extraordinary ideas for extraordinary spaces to put extraordinary events in!

All suggestions welcome...

we're on the lookout for any smart buildings / rooms / spaces / huts / caves that you think are currently underutilised or could be good for putting on small imp events.

thanks in advance

What about...

Top floor of Chapel Street Car Park/College Street Car Park (covered top floor, that is)
Railway Station concourse
The Moorings
Centre of the maze at Hazlehead Park
Aberdeen Airport
Aberdeen Ferry Terminal (or even onboard a NorthLink Ferry!)
Amadeus

Further afield..

Ranger information hut at Haughton Park in Alford
Lairig Ghru (or however it's spelt)
In a bothy somewhere in the Cairngorms
Balmoral Castle (no harm in trying!) - failing that, any castle in the North East
Any village hall along the coastline

I think Amadeus is a good shout. I think it would be great to see some dis-used buildings being performed in.

How about the old Tivoli?

How about the ground floor of the west north street car park. If you filmed this, it would look amazing.

How about the park beside my house in Stonehaven? That way I could just open my window and not even have to leave my room. I'd save money on train fares, too. If you really insisted, I'm sure I could arrange to leave my entry fee on the grass of the park beforehand. I could try throwing it out of the window but it's be quite tricky.

The Mitchell Hall at Marischal College would be a great venue for something suitably epic sounding.
