EDINBURGH · WEEK OF 5 OCTOBER 2026
Top 3 events in Edinburgh this week
An acoustic gig in Edinburgh and two free card-convention listings in Grangemouth feature in this week’s noticeboard picks.
Looking for something to put in the diary for the week beginning Monday 5 October 2026? This week’s noticeboard brings together three supplied listings: an acoustic gig on Friday and two separate dates for a Scottish card convention over the weekend. There’s a £10 option for music lovers and free entry listed for both card-show dates.
A little planning note before you browse: only the gig is in Edinburgh itself; the two convention listings are at Grangemouth Stadium, outside the city. We’ve kept those Saturday and Sunday entries separate so you can see each listed date clearly. The gig is described as a sample listing, while neither convention entry includes a start time, so those details deserve attention before making plans.
Acoustic Sessions — Edinburgh
Acoustic Sessions is listed for Friday 9 October at Assembly Roxy, priced at £10 and open to all ages. The entry gives 19:00 as its time and specifically says doors are from 19:00; a separate performance start time is not supplied. As an acoustic gig, it’s the music option among this week’s three picks. There are no performers or programme details named in the description, which also labels this a sample listing for Edinburgh. If it catches your eye, bear that sample status in mind rather than treating it as a fully confirmed concert announcement.
Jus A Card Show
The first Jus A Card Show entry falls on Saturday 10 October at Grangemouth Stadium, with free entry listed. Billed as “THE SCOTTISH CARD CONVENTION”, it names Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, One Piece, Magic: The Gathering and sports cards among its interests, plus more. That gives card fans a broad picture of the convention’s focus, though the supplied description does not set out individual activities or a programme. No start time is provided. This is an option beyond Edinburgh itself, so keep the Grangemouth venue in mind when deciding whether Saturday’s listing belongs in your weekend plans.
Jus A Card Show
Sunday 11 October brings the second supplied Jus A Card Show listing, again at Grangemouth Stadium and again marked free. Its description advertises the same Scottish card convention, covering Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, One Piece, Magic: The Gathering, sports cards and more. A start time is not supplied for Sunday either, and no separate Sunday programme is described. If those card collections are your interest, this is another listed date to consider. Just remember that the venue is outside Edinburgh and that the two entries do not explain whether the programme differs between Saturday and Sunday.
