Hidden Door 2025 runs from Wednesday 11th to Sunday 15th June 2025.
For our 2025 festival, we are taking over a huge industrial site in west Edinburgh – The Paper Factory – for 5 days of live music, visual art, immersive performances and special events.
Following a successful venue launch party in November 2024, we’re now opening up more of this huge site and making use of the various warehouses, factory floors, offices and outhouses.
A limited release of Early Bird tickets is now live.
Throughout 2025, the site will also be transformed into a creative hub featuring studio, workshop and community spaces.
Hidden Door is a volunteer-run charity putting on multi-arts events in disused or unusual spaces around Edinburgh. Every ticket sale goes straight to supporting our artists and contributors.
Hidden Door is a charity and all ticket sales go straight into putting on our events and ensuring all of our creative contributors are fairly paid.
We are thrilled to be taking over a huge industrial site for our 2025 multi arts festival.
We’re calling it The Paper Factory because it’s a huge former paper and cardboard box manufacturing facility, with a mix of warehouses, factory floors, offices and outhouses spread across a 15 acre site.
The Paper Factory is well served by a variety of public transport links, with frequent bus, tram and train services all stopping nearby, making it easy to reach us from anywhere in the city or beyond.
