Hard Rock Rocks Edinburgh is in it's first year as the Hard Rock Cafe will host its first music festival in Scotland within the square in 2015. The three-day long music festival will include two stages which will kick start the Festival Fringe season and bring musical wonder to the town. The Spiegeltent will be used to host ticketed events and act as the main area while the Rising Stage will host free showcases, hosting up and coming acts and acoustic sets.

And to add that flare of the Hard Rock Cafe the Hard Rock for truck will serve up food on site from the cafes menu.

On Friday 31st July catch Fatherson, while on Saturday 1st August make sure you catch Nina Nesbit and Big Country, and closing the festival on Sunday 2nd August is Ben Montague & James Walsh, Stevie McCrorie and The Feeling.
