Concert-goers can join a free Unofficial Luke Combs Preparty and Afterparty at Malones Edinburgh on 24 and 25 July 2026. The Morrison Street bar is hosting the event around Luke Combs’ performances at Scottish Gas Murrayfield, although it is open to the general public as well as ticket-holders.

Malones Edinburgh is at 242 Morrison Street, Edinburgh EH3 8DT. No event ticket or advance booking is required, and walk-ins are welcome. Under-18s can attend the preparty until 8pm when accompanied by an adult.

Live music before the concert and an afterparty until 1am

The programme centres on live performers and music before the Murrayfield concert. Malones describes the preparty as an opportunity for fans to get into the mood for the gig before travelling to the stadium.

After the concert, the bar will continue with music and a party atmosphere and remain open until 1am. The preparty and afterparty are listed for both 24 and 25 July, giving people attending on either date the same free, walk-in option.

Forever Edinburgh Events does not publish a start time. Visitors planning to call in before the concert should therefore note that the opening point of the preparty is not confirmed in the listing. The confirmed practical details are free entry, no ticket requirement and the venue’s 1am closing time after the performance.

Getting from Morrison Street to Murrayfield

Malones is approximately a 20-minute walk from Scottish Gas Murrayfield. That makes the bar a possible stopping point before continuing to the stadium on foot, with visitors responsible for allowing enough time for the onward journey.

Edinburgh Trams provide the stated public-transport alternative. The event listing says trams run regularly between the area and Murrayfield stadium, although it does not provide a concert-specific timetable or journey time.

Accessibility and age details at Malones

The main entrance and bar have level access, and the ground floor is wheelchair accessible. The venue information also classifies its overall wheelchair access as partial and says it is partially suitable for people with limited mobility. Those descriptions indicate that the confirmed accessible area is the ground floor rather than the whole premises.

Pets are welcome and Wi-Fi is available at the venue. Under-18s must attend with an accompanying adult and leave the preparty by 8pm; the afterparty then continues until 1am. Anyone choosing between walking and taking the tram should plan from Malones Edinburgh, 242 Morrison Street, using the approximately 20-minute walking estimate as the source-listed guide.
