Welcome to The Bongo Club, or simply ‘Bongo’* as it’s affectionately known by regulars and locals alike. We’ve been here since 1996, which makes us the longest-running underground nightclub and live venue in Edinburgh. Much more info here.
Look out for these flyers, which will be circulating around town over the next few weeks. Each one has four discount vouchers and a couple of free cloak room tickets on the back. The discount vouchers can be redeemed on the door at participating nights only. See details of participating nights listed on the website.
NB PLEASE NOTE: This is subject to change, as other Bongo promoters jump on board.
WIN A YEAR ON THE GUEST-LIST + BONGO SWAG
This season, we’re offering you the chance to win a whole year on the guest-list – yup, you’ll be able to come to ALL of our events for the whole of your first year without paying any money – plus a stack of Bongo merch: a hoody OR sweatshirt (your choice which), a cap, a tote bag, even a mug! In other words, we will give you just about everything you should need to get through your first year at uni, for free….
All you have to do is sign up for our mailing list. The winner’s name will be drawn out of a hat at lunchtime on Friday 25th September.
NB On average, we only send out about one newsletter a month, so it won’t be a massive PITA and, if you lose interest, you can easily unsubscribe later.
NB2 This offer is open to 2025 Freshers ONLY, so if you end up winning and we then find out you’re not a Fresher, you will most definitely be a Loser.
FRESHERS WEEK EVENTS
Bongo will be open every night (bar Thursday & Sunday) for this year’s Freshers’ Week….
“Back for another 360 at Bongo,” say the Black Flag student crew. “As it’s freshers week make sure to get your tickets early. Tickets will be valid until 1am and you will not be able to get back in with the same ticket if you leave the venue. It’s going to be a big one as always. See you there.” MORE INFO / TICKETS [Bongo Dollars accepted at the door]
“Van Rouge is back for the first event of the year after a sell-out day party in May,” say the Van Rouge student crew. “Join us at The Bongo Club where Edinburgh’s best will be spinning a mix of house, techno, and beats to get the week started right.” MORE INFO / TICKETS
“After a string of sell-outs across Edinburgh, London, and beyond – including our recent roadblock at Sneaky Pete’s – we’re back for a Freshers’ Week special at the legendary Bongo Club,” say the Redemption crew. MORE INFO / TICKETS [Bongo Dollars accepted at the door]
“Alien Disko returns to The Bongo Club to kickstart the new club season with a bang after a Summer break,” say the hard tek champs. “Bringing you two headliners, two lineups of DJs and full-scale rave exploration – we’re going all in.” MORE INFO / TICKETS [Bongo Dollars accepted at the door]
“After a storming debut with us at Bongo last November, MiNNA makes her much-anticipated return to Club_Nacht x Hobbes Music this September, primed once again to take Bongo on a ride through her kaleidoscopic, effervescent sound,” say the house & disco championing CN x HM crew. “Her style moves fluidly between deep, rolling house, disco flavours and head-turning curveballs, delivered with the kind of precision and playfulness that keeps a floor spellbound.” MORE INFO / TICKETS [Bongo Dollars accepted at the door]
