Scottish rock band Biffy Clyro will headline the Edinburgh Summer Sessions on Friday 21 August 2026 at the Royal Highland Centre, with support from Nothing But Thieves and Swim School. The outdoor show promises a powerful set from the trio, who are expected to draw from their extensive catalogue of anthemic rock alongside more recent material. The open-air venue offers a large-scale setting for a high-energy performance, allowing the band’s dynamic sound to carry across the showground. Fans can anticipate a commanding display as Biffy Clyro deliver their signature blend of thunderous riffs and soaring melodies, cementing their status as one of the UK’s most formidable live acts. With Nothing But Thieves adding their own distinctive alt-rock edge and Swim School providing a fresh burst of energy, the evening is shaping up to be a highlight of the summer calendar. The Royal Highland Centre’s sprawling grounds provide ample space for a crowd ready to lose themselves in the music, making this a not-to-be-missed date for Scottish rock enthusiasts.

The event is scheduled to take place on Friday 21 August 2026, with ticket prices available on the event website. The show is expected to be exceptionally popular, with demand likely to be high.
