What To Expect
Sigur Rós are known for atmospheric live shows, slow builds and a sound that sits between post-rock, ambient and orchestral music. With the Scottish Chamber Orchestra involved, the Edinburgh date should have a different feel from a standard touring band setup.
The Playhouse gives the show a large seated theatre setting, which should suit the quieter and more cinematic parts of the set.
Tickets & Entry
Tickets are listed through Ticketmaster. Check the current listing before booking, as seat availability and prices can change.
If you are booking a group or want a particular seating area, it is worth checking the seating plan early.
Location
The concert takes place at Edinburgh Playhouse on Greenside Place, close to the Omni Centre and the east end of the city centre.
Getting There
Edinburgh Waverley and St Andrew Square tram stop are both within walking distance. Buses along Princes Street, York Place and Leith Walk also make the Playhouse easy to reach from most parts of the city.
Late-August city-centre traffic can be slow, so public transport is usually the simpler option.
Our Tips
- Check your seating area before booking, as this is a large theatre show.
- Arrive early if you want time to find your seats without rushing.
- Use public transport if you can, as August traffic can be busy.
- Look over the official Playhouse page for any last-minute updates.
