Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012

3 - 27 August 2012

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is the world’s largest arts festival. For three weeks in August it entertains more than a million people with its heady mix of cabaret, children’s shows, comedy, events, exhibitions, theatre and much more.

An iconic arts festival.

The Fringe, as it’s more often known, has been running since 1947, when touring theatre groups ‘gate-crashed’ the main Edinburgh Festival. Today you’ll find an iconic festival that has become internationally popular and an important part of the city’s culture and heritage. There are an incredible variety of shows for you to enjoy all set against the backdrop of the picturesque and historic Scottish capital.

Edinburgh Fringe 2012 – better than ever.

The 2012 Fringe is on between 3rd – 27th August and is set to be bigger than ever - and that’s saying something as 2011 had over 2,453 shows. Why not make a date to see the very first mainstream, cult or offbeat shows, with national and international backgrounds? You’re bound to find something to suit your taste however wild or wacky.
