Dolly Parton in Edinburgh, October 30th 1980. In October 1980, country music legend Dolly Parton was in Edinburgh, attending a performance of Morning at Seven at the Royal Lyceum Theatre. Dolly was accompanied by her brother, David Parton, as the pair enjoyed an evening at one of Edinburgh's most historic theatres. Dolly never actually performed in Edinburgh, however she did play shows in Aberdeen and Glasgow. I was lucky enough to see her live in Glasgow in 2014, when my friend and I somehow managed to get seats in the second row! We'd been up dancing to just about every song, and just before Dolly closed the concert, she told the crowd, "You've been an amazing audience," before pointing down towards us and adding, "Especially you two down in the front!" Safe to say, I'll never forget that #dollyparton #edinburgh #edinburghscotland #edinburghfringe

Princes Street is set to reopen this Saturday after almost two months after a fire caused most of the street to close to traffic. This will allow trams to return to their full route through to Leith. This footage dates back to 2023, when one of Edinburgh’s first trams made its way along Leith Walk during testing, giving a wee ding of its bell as it passed. #edinburgh #tram #edinburghtraffic #traffic
