A statement posted to the business’s Facebook page reads: “So, The Cave story ends in a few weeks.

“We can now tell you that The Cave will close its doors for the final time as a live music venue on Saturday, September 13.

“What a journey it has been. We have had highs, lows, and even Covid thrown into the mix. But what a blast.

“We would be here all day if we were to thank everyone individually, and the hundreds of bands that have entertained us over the last 10 years.

“We are heartbroken to close our doors, and trust us when we say we have thrown everything into trying to keep things going, but as they say, all good things come to an end.

“Promise us one thing, folks. Keep music live. Thank you all, each and every one of you, who has kept the dream alive.

“See you all in the next few weeks to say goodbye in person. Our bands will still be rocking the place and maybe a wee something special on the thirteenth.

“Keep your eyes peeled on our socials.”

Property auctioneers Auction House Scotland described the premises as having a “distinctive” interior and a “strong reputation” for live music events.

They insisted that it has a “vibrant” atmosphere, having built a “loyal” following over the years.
