Top Scotland Comedy Shows

The Comedy Cellar is a small, intimate stand-up comedy club where the audience is right in the middle of the action. Rather than watching comedy in a large theatre, you’re only a few feet away from the performers, which creates a much more personal and unpredictable experience. The shows feature a changing mix of Irish, Scottish and international comedians, with stand-up, crowd work and plenty of interaction with the audience. No two shows are ever exactly the same. It has the feel of a proper grassroots comedy club: relaxed, lively and focused on genuinely funny live comedy rather than a polished corporate experience. Being located in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town also makes it an easy addition to a night out in the city. It’s the kind of comedy experience where you feel part of the show rather than simply watching it.

Witness a captivating evening of close-up magic at the Royal Mile Theatre of Magic in Edinburgh's Old Town. This intimate one-hour show puts you just feet away from the incredible illusions crafted by award-winning magician Matthew Keys (As seen on Amazon Prime’s Good Omens). With a performance that dazzles and mystifies, it’s the perfect outing for magic enthusiasts and those looking to enjoy a unique experience in Scotland's capital. This show promises a magical night out that you won't forget.

Edinburgh is known for its dark past, and this evening walking tour is the original one to showcase the city's historically sinister and spooky side. Discover the hidden ‘wynds’ (alleys) and closes of the Old Town as you learn their mysteries and horrors; visit the ghost-ridden Greyfriars Kirkyard; and explore the city’s underground vaults to uncover their spirits and secrets. Your tour is led by a creepily costumed guide to get everyone into the spooky spirit of things.
