Assembly Rooms
This imposing historic building first opened its doors in 1787, and has been a Fringe venue for over 27 years. Other Assembly venues include Aurora Nova , showcasing the best in international theatre and dance.

Pleasance Courtyard
The pleasance courtyard is the hub of the multitude of pleasance venues, and therefore the epicenter of the Fringe. Flyer girls, famous faces and fringe goers mingle, join the throng and soak up the festivities.

Up Arthur’s Seat
High above the Festival chaos, climb the little piece of Scottish highland wilderness that dominates the Edinburgh skyline. Performances are held on a grassy plateau, open to the elements and overlooking the city.

Spiegel Tent
This beautiful 1920’s wood and mirror paneled dance tent is the venue for the weird and wonderful of the festival, with Cabaret, side shows, music, dancing and wild times every night through August.  

 
C Soco Urban Garden
Risen from the ashes of the original Gilded Balloon, the C Soco Urban Garden may look like a refugee camp, but actually hosts one of the more decadent Fringe watering holes, serving oysters, champagne and fine wines under canvas.
