Sunset Sessions

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh is kicking off the summer in style with its exclusive series of free rooftop events – Sunset Sessions!

Sunset Sessions

About Sunset Sessions

Hosted on the hotel’s stunning rooftop terrace that boasts unbeatable views of the city’s Old Town and Edinburgh Castle, the spectacular events will showcase Scottish musical talent, including Beth Karp and Kohla, who will bring the ultimate summer ambience as the sun sets over Edinburgh’s iconic skyline.

Launching on the 9th of June and taking place every Friday and Saturday evening from 7:45pm to 9:45pm throughout summer, the free events are set to bring Edinburgh’s music community together and provide a platform for up-and-coming artists.

The Sunset Sessions will offer locals and music lovers alike with an unmatched experience: providing views that can't be seen from anywhere else in the city, local artist performances and refreshing drinks. Better yet, blankets will be on hand so guests can cosy up whilst enjoying their favourite performers. After the sun sets, guests can enjoy more live entertainment, drinks and delicious food at Eve and Commons Club which will both be open till late.

The Sunset Session events nod to Virgin’s musical roots, with Virgin Hotels founder, Sir Richard Branson, starting independent record label, Virgin Records, back in 1972.
