Sneaky Pete's

Seven hours of cross genre disco music, it’s a strictly vinyl affair, no gimmicks, just solid music all night with a good crowd.

Edinburgh’s wildly popular Athens of the North label goes real world a few times a year at Edinburgh’s favourite sweatbox, Sneaky Pete’s, revealing their top picks from their extensive record (yes record) collections.

Trust us and be rewarded. The real trick is to make it all coherent. No requests. Come along for the ride.
