Rock

Formerly known during the Fringe as the Green Room, this popular venue just off the Cowgate (next door to the gap site of the former Gilded Balloon) has had a major overhaul. Gone is the grunge appeal

Like many clubs in the area, this Victoria Street live-music and clubbing venue is based in a deep, subterranean vault of the old town.

Edinburgh Castle is at the heart of the Scottish capital. An ancient stronghold perched on top the craggy remains of an extinct volcano, it is believed to have been an important fortification as long ago as the Iron Age.

One of Edinburgh's main live rock venues with a standing capacity of up to 2800.

Cabaret Voltaire is one of Edinburgh’s thriving subterranean club and rock venues.
