Cabaret Voltaire

At the heart of the Old Town hides Cabaret Voltaire, a famous Edinburgh establishment. The venue is home to a variety of music as long as it is loud. From live music events to well known DJ events, the vaults beneath the North Bridge in Edinburgh have been transformed into legendary music venue. Experience the unrivalled atmosphere every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, & Saturday.

The week begins with Hectors House on a Tuesday, the place to be for house, techno and disco music all in the one place. Thursday introduces DICE, Edinburgh's only student night solely for techno. Friday brings Fly Club a well known night by the festival giants leading into Saturday, when three Saturdays a month the music is provided by PLEASURE with CENTRAL stepping in on the second of the month with the big acts.

Why not book a private area at Cabaret Voltaire perfect for a night out with friends accompanied by a varied selection of drinks packages. Make a night of it.
