Edinburgh

What it’s like

Free entry live music venue with bands on every night and a Wednesday ceilidh, open until 3am.

This is a live music spot rather than a soft play or a farm, so if you're picturing somewhere to bring a toddler, think again. There's a band on every single day of the week, which is a proper commitment from the venue, and Wednesday is given over to a traditional ceilidh if you fancy dragging the family onto the dance floor rather than just watching from the side.

The line-up mixes party bands, touring acts and tribute nights, so what you get on any given evening depends on who's booked in. Entry's free, which takes the pressure off if you're not sure the night's for you, and doors stay open until 3am, so this is very much an evening or night-time visit rather than an afternoon one.

There's no age range given, so use your own judgement on whether this suits your kids. A late-night live music bar with bands running until the small hours reads as one for older teens with you in tow, not a daytime family outing.

Plan your visit

How much does it cost to get in?

It's free entry, every day of the week.

What's on during the week?

Live bands every night, plus party bands, touring bands and tribute acts. Wednesday is the traditional ceilidh night.

What time does it open until?

It runs daily until 3am, so it's a late one rather than an early evening slot.

Do we need to book ahead?

There's no booking link listed, so it sounds like a turn-up-on-the-night sort of place.
