Thedeadinedinburgh: Gothic Rock and Post-Punk Festival at La Belle Angèle
From July 10 to 12, 2026, La Belle Angèle in Edinburgh hosts Thedeadinedinburgh, a festival dedicated to British gothic rock and post-punk. This three-day event celebrates pioneers and survivors of the 80s goth scene, bringing together cult bands and underground formations in a dark and nostalgic atmosphere. The intimate setting of La Belle Angèle in Edinburgh offers a perfect showcase for this immersion into gothic rock roots.
The lineup showcases goth scene legends: Skeletal Family, pioneers of British gothic rock, Rose Of Avalanche, figures of gothic post-punk, and Balaam and the Angel, major players of the batcave scene. Also featured are Ghostdance, Ausgang (UK), and John McKays Reactor.

This approach allows you to relive the creative excitement of the British goth scene, bridging post-punk influences and dark romanticism. The underground spirit and alternative culture permeate each set, creating an authentic atmosphere for fans of dark and theatrical music.
