Hot!

Edinburgh + Glasgow Summer Sessions + TRNSMT – World Class acts in stunning locations.

If you’re planning a trip up north this summer either for the Edinburgh Festival or a city break (and if not, why not?) then you’re in for a treat!

I may sound biased as I’m from Edinburgh myself, but I only started to appreciate just how special Edinburgh is, once I moved away. Indeed, once I moved away it seemed to become a lot cooler. I think it was coincidence…

Edinburgh Castle is stunning – just look at the image above! It’s right in the heart of the city-centre on Edinburgh’s main shopping street, Princess Street and makes a truly unique and stunning backdrop to catch a band!

Ticket prices are reasonable, and if you’re quick you can even put down a 20% deposit and pay the balance over the next 2 months.

GLASGOW SUMMER SESSIONS

Bellahouston Park – Glasgow (© Ryan Johnson)

If the image in your head of Glasgow is based on Rab C Nesbitt and Taggart, then you’re in for a surprise – it’s a modern, vibrant, world class city, with lots to check out and a superb transport system for getting around, including an underground.

Whilst no music lover’s trip would be complete without a trip to the world famous King Tuts Wah Wah Hut (described by the NME as the best small venue in the world) , for bigger names head over to Bellahouston Park for the Glasgow Summer Sessions.

16th August
The Cure + Mogwai + The Twilight Sad + The Joy Formidable
For me personally, this is one of the highlights, check out our preview here.
