The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the world’s largest arts festival and the modern spiritual home of comedy is back once again – chock full of comedians, actors, dancers, circus acts, musicals and so much more.

First established in 1947, the Edinburgh Fringe was originally an outlet for smaller theatre companies looking to play smaller, more alternative venue is the city while the larger Edinburgh International Festival took over the majority of venues and spaces in the capital.
Despite its roots in serious theatre, the festival has now become synonymous with comedy. Since 2008, comedy has made up the largest category of entertainment.
