The venue has three event spaces that are available to hire throughout the year; Roxy Central, Roxy Upstairs and Roxy Downstairs. These spaces can be used for a wide range of events; from various types of performances and live music, to weddings, conferences and exhibitions.

Along with these spaces, we also have the Snug Bar, a cosy area that can be used either independently or alongside an event, in order to let guests relax before, during or after events.

The building is well known for its use in the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
