Meet the Musicians Taking our Stage at Hidden Door

We’re thrilled to share the amazing line-up of emerging musicians selected to perform on the Creative Edinburgh Stage at the Hidden Door Opening Party.

Hidden Door is a unique Edinburgh arts festival taking place in unusual, forgotten urban spaces - plus they were winners of the 2023 Creative Edinburgh City Award! For their 2025 festival, they are taking over a huge industrial site in west Edinburgh – The Paper Factory – for five days of live music, visual art, immersive performances and special events. They’re opening up this huge site and making use of the various warehouses, factory floors, offices and outhouses.

And to celebrate our friends at Hidden Door, we are hooking up Creative Edinburgh Members with a +40% discount on tickets to the Opening Party on Wednesday 11 June!
