After that? Well, it’s Christmas…pop in and see what’s happening, we’re never quite sure what the regulars are planning, and that’s part of the charm.
HOGMANAY!!!
PARTY!!!!!!!
The BP Halloween Party is on the Saturday the 29th of October. Why not Monday the 31st? Because Mondays are generally a bit boring, and we’d like to give you a chance to test drive your outfit!
Get yourself dressed up and pop in for a horrifically good night. Lydia’s in charge of the decor and promises “cave-like”. We’ll have lots of strange potions and concoctions on the go, plus Medina’s DJ Aaron is defecting to us for the night to provide the tunes.
With prizes for the best outfits, and the usual Poet shennanigans it’s going to be a big and silly night.
Sign up to the site and you can upload your own pics from the evening – we might even find some prizes for the best pics!
OK, so it’s cold outside and the nights are rapidly drawing in – big deal, we’ve got a fire, the couches are cosy, and frankly the outdoors are over-rated. So get in early, bag the most comfortable seats, grab a drink and relax…
All our gigs and events are entirely free, with the exception of the quiz which costs a whole pound per team to enter.
| Tuesdays (4th, 11th, 18th, 25th) |
Open Mic Chris Scott provides the PA and organisation, you provide the talent. All welcome! |
| Thursdays (6th, 13th, 20th, 27th) |
Karaoke Big Mark presents Edinburgh’s finest and not-so-finest. Free prize for all singers! |
 |
|
| Sundays (9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th) |
The BP Quiz Test your brains against the quiz, the staff, and a horde of regulars in the corner. Prizes for first, second and last and a cash jackpot there for the taking! |
