Our programme for 2005 features 22 shows from Scotland, around the UK, South Africa, the USA and New Zealand.
    
We are based in two central Edinburgh venues - at the Canons Gait, on the Royal Mile, and at Lindsay's, in Brunswick Street, just off of Leith Walk and London Road.
    
We offer a completely different kind of Fringe experience for both audiences and acts: All the shows are top quality and they are all FREE - a way of running shows that has grown from a single show.
     
Come and have a look at our programme for the best ever value Fringe!
