Audiophiles and music fans are in for a serious aural and visual treat this autumn when Scotland's only dedicated hi-fi and AV show makes a return.

The firm ran the Scottish Audio Show between 2003 and 2007.

The airport hotel location benefits from strong transport links and close proximity to the Ingliston Park and Ride facility and two tram stops. 2024's Edinburgh Hi-AV Show was held at the DoubleTree By Hilton hotel at Edinburgh Airport, where it will return to in 2025, and featured scores of prestigious brands including McIntosh. Picture: Scott Reid Tickets for this year's show, which The Scotsman is partnering with, are available to buy in advance at an early bird price of just £10, but they now offer access on both the Saturday and Sunday. This price is only valid up until June 30 and from July 1 the price will increase to £20 for both days. Under 15s will be admitted free of charge if accompanied by a paying adult.

Last year's return of the show saw the public getting up close and listening to scores of top streaming, vinyl and CD systems from the likes of Meridian, McIntosh and Cyrus, and Scottish manufacturers such as Art Loudspeakers, Fyne Audio and Ecosse Cables. The event also offered a wide selection of new and used vinyl records - an element that will be expanded in 2025.
