What To Expect
The Temptations and The Four Tops are long-running Motown names, with catalogues stretching across soul, pop and R&B.
The Four Tops formed in Detroit in the 1950s and will mark 70 years of hits in 2026, according to ATG Tickets. The current line-up is listed as Lawrence Payton Jr., Theo Peoples, Ronnie McNeir and Michael Brock.
Expect a seated theatre concert rather than a standing gig, with the Edinburgh Playhouse setting better suited to classic soul, harmonies and a mixed-age audience.
Tickets & Entry
Tickets for The Temptations & The Four Tops at Edinburgh Playhouse are listed on Ticketmaster for Monday 29 June 2026. Ticketmaster shows the event time as 18:30 and notes a maximum of 6 tickets per person and per household. Orders above the limit may be cancelled.
ATG Tickets also lists the show at Edinburgh Playhouse on Monday 29 June 2026, with a listed time of 19:30. Because the two ticket pages show different times, it’s best to check the time printed on your ticket or booking confirmation before making travel plans.

Location
Edinburgh Playhouse is at 18–22 Greenside Place, just off Leith Street and close to the east end of Princes Street.
It’s one of the city’s most accessible major venues, with plenty of nearby places for food and drink before the show.
Getting There
The Playhouse is a short walk from Edinburgh Waverley Station, St Andrew Square tram stop and several city centre bus routes.
If you’re arriving by car, parking is usually easier in nearby paid car parks than on the surrounding streets. The area can be busy around show times, especially with other city centre events on the same evening.
Our Tips
- Check your ticket time: Ticketmaster lists 6.30pm, while ATG lists 7.30pm.
- Book seats together early: theatre gigs can leave odd single seats once availability drops.
- Use public transport if possible: the Playhouse is well placed for tram, train and bus routes.
- Allow extra time around Leith Street: traffic and pedestrian flow can be slow before large shows.
