Sunday 28 June is one of those days where Edinburgh simply refuses to stand still. From a sun-soaked rooftop all-dayer to a city-wide live music takeover, the capital is humming with an extraordinary range of sounds, laughs, and late-night energy. Whether you're easing into the evening gently or planning to see it through to midnight, there is a version of this city tonight that was made exactly for you.

Highlights

UpOnARoof Alfresco All-dayer VICTOR SIMONELLI + IAIN BONEY CLARK — Kick your Sunday off in the best possible fashion with this rooftop all-dayer at Skyline Sips, where house music legend Victor Simonelli joins forces with Iain Boney Clark from 1:00pm. There are few better ways to spend a summer afternoon than swaying on a rooftop with a drink in hand and proper deep house rolling across the city skyline. Tickets are just £10–£20, so the only regret would be staying indoors.

Ethel Cain — One of the most talked-about voices in contemporary alternative music, Ethel Cain brings her haunting, cinematic Southern gothic sound to the grandeur of Usher Hall at 7:00pm. This is a rare Edinburgh date for an artist who has been captivating audiences and critics in equal measure, and the ornate surroundings of Usher Hall will only amplify the drama of it all. Check the website for tickets before they are gone.

EVERYWHERE AT ONCE: Natalie MacMaster & Donnell Leahy — Part of Edinburgh's city-wide EVERYWHERE AT ONCE festival, this show at The Queen's Hall at 7:30pm pairs two of Celtic music's most electrifying performers — fiddle virtuosos Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy — in what promises to be an evening of jaw-dropping technical brilliance and pure joyful energy. The Queen's Hall is an intimate and beloved space, which makes this feel like a very special occasion indeed. Check the website for ticket details.

EVERYWHERE AT ONCE: Lone (live) — Sneaky Pete's is the perfect sweat-box setting for Lone, the project of British producer Matt Cutler, whose shimmering blend of electronic music sits somewhere between euphoric rave and bedroom pop bliss. Doors open at 7:00pm as part of the sprawling EVERYWHERE AT ONCE programme, and if you have ever wanted to lose yourself in a wash of synths and drum machines in a venue that genuinely loves music, this is your evening. Check the website for tickets.

The Comedy Cellar Edinburgh Live Stand-Up Comedy — Canon's Gait Pub on the Royal Mile hosts not one but two Comedy Cellar shows today, with sets at 5:00pm and 8:00pm — so you can time it around whatever else you have planned. Live stand-up in a proper pub setting is one of life's great pleasures, and at £12 a ticket it is outstanding value for an evening of belly laughs. Grab a pint, settle in, and let someone else do the heavy lifting.

Tipsy presents... HARDY CAPRIO live | 28th June '26 — Round off the entire day with a bang as UK rap favourite Hardy Caprio takes to the stage live at Coco Boho from 11:00pm. This is the kind of late-night event that Edinburgh does brilliantly — intimate, energetic, and just a little bit unpredictable in the best way. Tickets are £10–£15, which for a live performance from one of British urban music's brightest names feels like an absolute steal.
