The main series of meetings held by the Astronomical Society of Edinburgh are its Ordinary Meetings, which feature a main talk by a guest speaker on a topic of general interest. The main talk is often preceded by short presentations by members or by a preview of the month's night sky. Ordinary Meetings are held monthly - except August - on the first or second Friday of the month. Non-members are welcome to these meetings, which take place at the Augustine Church Centre (see below for venues). Admission is free, for members and non-members.

The annual programme of Ordinary Meetings runs from October to September, but is split into a winter and summer half. There are also an Annual General Meeting and meetings of the Imaging Group. In addition, there may be observing sessions at the dark site, or public observing nearer the City of Edinburgh.
