Scottish Clubbing Highlights: February 2025
Strut your stuff for the sweatiest and sexiest Valentine’s Scotland’s seen yet. This month's top clubbing picks include Miss World, Aluna, Martyn Bootyspoon, and BABii
On Thursday 6 February, head to The Bongo Club for a Scottish dub and ceilidh fusion with An Dannsa Dub and Uplands Roast for Botanica – expect a big rig sound system. Or for something a little funkier, head to Sneaky Pete’s for a mixed bag of ghettotech and Chicago house with Martyn Bootyspoon. Bakey returns to Glasgow on Friday 7 February, bringing a selection of two-step and garage cuts to Stereo. Alternatively, head to Queen Street for UK techno, new and old, from Radioactive Man and Lucas Wigflex, as Lezure mark ten years of basement debauchery inside La Cheetah. On Tuesday 11 February, The Hug and Pint host nymph bass queen BABii from 7.30pm.
Strut your stuff at SWG3 on Valentine’s with Ponyboy, featuring Jyoty. For a slightly freakier Friday evening, Stereo hosts Valentine's with ballad, Plata, Julietta Ferrari, dji mon, opherings and 500 (14 Feb). On Saturday 15th, the celebrations continue at The Flying Duck with ELANDA, Spinefluid and 3MR for DRIP Valentine's. If you’re not feeling the love, The Bongo Club goes dubstep galore with Mia Koden at Chromatic (15 Feb).
The following weekend, La Cheetah presents: Shanti Celeste - All Night Long – expect a contemporary take on the classic Motor City sound. At The Berkeley Suite, picture the best percussive UK techno with a tinge of tech house at ThudLine: Ploy, LWS & más allá (both 21 Feb). On Saturday 22 February, Detroit’s DJ Stingray brings top Electro and Techno to Edinburgh for Pulse at The Bongo Club (22 Feb). On Friday 28 February, crack a can for 10 Years of Craigie Knowes with Om Unit at La Cheetah – dress to sweat.
