Most gig apps tell you when your favourite artists are playing. GuidGuide helps you discover artists you don't know yet — and the Scottish venues and promoters who bring them here.
Why GuidGuide exists
Scotland has one of the best live music scenes in the world. King Tut's, Barrowlands, The Liquid Room — venues that have launched careers and shaped genres. But the bands playing those rooms tonight? Too often they're invisible unless you already know to look.
GuidGuide is built to fix that. We surface the shows worth going to — from arena headliners to the unsigned act that'll be on the radio in two years — all in one place, all Scotland, all music.
What makes us different
- ●Discovery, not just tracking. You don't need to know who's playing to find a great night out. Browse by city, genre, or date and let the music surprise you.
- ●Scotland only, properly. No yoga classes, no quiz nights, no events in Orlando. Every listing is a music event happening in Scotland.
- ●Emerging artists front and centre. The bands playing King Tut's tonight are tomorrow's headliners. We give them the same visibility as the big names.
- ●Straight from the source. Artists and promoters submit their own events directly. You hear about shows earlier, and the data is better because the people who care put it there.
For artists, promoters & venues
