Expect a cool reception at the gig if you try to bring any of these items in with you.

Chappell Roan rose to global fame after her debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess became a sleeper hit months after its release in 2023 - thanks to the single Good Luck, Babe! which went top 10 around the world.

Further hits followed, including Hot to Go! and Pink Pony Club, and she won the award for Best New Artist at the Grammy Awards.

Her concert last year at Glasgow’s O2 Academy was one of the hottest gigs of the year, selling out far in advance, and there’s good news for Scottish fans, with two more gigs this month.

She’ll be playing Edinburgh’s Royal Highland Showground as part of the Summer Sessions series of concerts on Tuesday, August 26, and Wednesday, August 27 - supported by former Little Mix singer JADE.

Be aware though, that there are a few items that organisers have warned fans to leave at home. Here’s what you need to know.

Be warned that if you ae found with these items you risk not being admitted and missing the concert.
