The Kelpies at Edinburgh Airport

The Kelpie models have a new temporary home. Edinburgh Airport are currently looking at options for a sculpture on the welcome roundabout – something that will inspire those arriving in this fantastic city and give a memorable farewell for those departing.
The Kelpies give an idea of what a sculpture could look like and the impact it will have on the airport. Staff are keen to get feedback from passengers before they finalise the potential design for a permanent sculpture.
