We Own and Bedbug have teamed up to bring one of the most in-demand DJs, Annie Mac, to Edinburgh.
This Saturday will see the BBC Radio 1 DJ hit the Liquid Room, supported by electro producer Fake Blood and the super smooth Jigsaw.

Bedbug brand manager Tom Whittle, looking ahead to Saturday’s gig, says, “We are truly made up that Annie has asked us to promote her tour in Edinburgh.

“The show carries massive kudos and we are expecting a sell-out crowd for this awesome line-up.
“It’s also great to be working with the We Own boys up in Scotland again. Their parties have a massive reputation for going off with a bang.”

If fiery-haired Irish women with sultry looks and a better record collection than any of your mates raises the beat then move your feet along to the Liquid Room.
