Overview

• Environmental health officers confirmed the permitted noise level was exceeded during AC/DC’s August 21 concert at Murrayfield.
• Officials recorded eight complaints tied to the AC/DC show and eight across Oasis’s three August dates at the stadium.
• Council officers will advise against using fireworks at future Murrayfield events, with each licence application still assessed on its own merits.
• Monitoring reports noted music audible inside nearby homes, including low-level bass in a bedroom with a window open.
• Some complaints began during AC/DC’s soundcheck the day before, and the move aligns with Edinburgh’s existing firework control zones introduced after zoo-linked animal welfare concerns.
