Hidden Door 2026 Night 4 - Saturday 6 June

Information

Hidden Door is set to stage a final spectacular takeover of The Paper Factory, a massive industrial site in west Edinburgh, for the 2026 edition of the multi arts festival.

SATURDAY HEADLINERS

On Saturday 6th June, Skye natives Valtos bring a dancefloor-ready take on their already unique sound with their acclaimed DJ/Live hybrid project High Water Mark, fusing folk and electronic beats for an energetic and dynamic experience.

The action will then move to the club space with Fred Deakin (Lemon Jelly/Club Life) taking audiences through the decades of his legendary Scottish club nights.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

From Wednesday 3rd to Sunday 7th June 2026, the site will be reimagined as a living, evolving space, giving audiences one last chance to rediscover this iconic location before the festival moves on.

The festival’s full programme of music, art, performances and special events will be revealed in April.

Once again, the festival is working with a wide range of creative partners to build an eclectic programme offering something for everyone, including:

• Five nights of live music programmed in collaboration with the likes of Paradise Palms Records, Hobbes Music, 432 Presents and independent programmers Jacob Brailsford and Arusa Qureshi
• 10 emerging music acts selected from an open call co-curated with the National Centre For Music and Creative Edinburgh
• Specially curated theatre, dance and spoken word performances scattered throughout the venue
• A brand new collaborative installation from Tinderbox Collective, experimenting with electronics and sensors, microcontrollers, code and responsive visuals.
• An evolution of Edinburgh International Mural Festival’s 2025 residency at The Paper Factory, which brought together mural artists from around the world to produce iconic large scale works
