'A European Mirror Tent - the ultimate cabaret and music salon'.
Spiegeltents are hand-hewn pavillions used as travelling dance halls and wine tasting
marquees since the early 20th century. There are only a handfull of these unique and
legendary ‘tents of mirrors’ left in the world today. Built of wood, mirrors, canvas,
leaded glass and detailed in velvet and brocade, each has its own personality and style.

The most beautiful of the last remaining Belgian ‘mirror’ tents, The Famous Spiegeltent,
was built in 1920 by master craftsmen Oscar Mols Dom and Loius Goor. This Grande
Dame has spent her lifetime at the bequest of festivals and village fairs throughout
Europe and beyond, playing host to the world’s greatest cabaret performers and
musicians.

Since Marlene Dietrich sang ‘Falling In love Again’ on The Famous Spiegeltent stage
in the 1930’s, its magic mirrors have reflected images of some the world’s greatest
performing artists and their adoring public.
The Famous Spiegeltent is the very essence of a festival club and ‘kabaret salon’. Like
every old theatre, her ghosts travel too, woven into ballooning velvet canopies, circular
teak dance floor and stained, cutglass windows. Her Intimate booths, ornate bar and
beveled mirror columns hold a million secrets while her glorious Nouveau chandelier
swings overhead.

The Famous Spiegeltent is a mainstay of the Edinburgh Festivals season and a star in
her own right, hosting parties, concerts, clubs and a myriad of stunning performances.
She has launched the European careers of countless artists and will forever remain the
stuff of dreams.
