Featured Scottish Festivals
Festival Types: Fringe, Performing Art, Comedy
Month: August
The Edinburgh Fringe (or just 'The Fringe' to it's friends) takes place for three manic weeks in Scotland's beguiling capital, Edinburgh, each and every August. Now established as the world's largest arts festival (with a heavy tilt toward comedy), and with no selection committee to draw the boundaries, expect the unexpected. From impromptu Shakespeare to experimental farce, Edinburgh's Fringe is bound to offer up something for every taste.
The Scots have always been a highly hospitable bunch proud of their tradition. And for the brave, what better way to see it in action than during Hogmanay - Europe’s finest celebration of the new year.
Enjoy a wee dram in a Royal Mile pub then stomp up a hill with thousands of others, torches ablaze. Follow it up the next night along with hundreds of thousands of other revellers on the streets of Edinburgh to some huge headline acts and the splendor of Edinburgh Castle as a backdrop. It don’t get much better than that! Pack a jacket.
