Creative Edinburgh Summer Party!

  • CodeBase Edinburgh 37a Castle Terrace Edinburgh, Scotland, EH1 2EL United Kingdom (map)

It’s that time of year again! Join us at the Creative Edinburgh Summer Party for drinks, food, music and conversation.

Plus, you’ll get to meet other creatives! As freelancers, we often miss out on office parties, so here is an opportunity to mingle and make meaningful connections with new friends in the industry.

Hosted and generously sponsored by CodeBase, we’ll provide a free drink (both non-alcoholic and alcoholic), followed by a paid bar and live entertainment for those who wish to party through the night.

This year we are partnering with Intercultural Youth Scotland to help bring some amazing live entertainment to our Summer Party.
