Each summer people visit Edinburgh from every corner of the globe and enjoy three exhilarating weeks of the very best in international opera, music, drama and dance.
Come with us on a journey of discovery in 2010 and celebrate the colour, the passion and the drama of the Edinburgh International Festival.
This year performers from the Americas and the Pacific rub shoulders with artists from Spain, Holland, Germany, Russia and the UK, creating a delicious melting pot of entertainment. We’d love you to join us!
In its 64th year, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is delighted to launch its biggest and most exciting line-up to date comprising a staggering 2,453 shows. With the number of shows increasing by 17 percent on last year’s total, the 2010 programme ensures that the Fringe offers the world’s best and most original comedy, theatre, dance and physical theatre, events, exhibitions, children’s shows, music, musicals and opera.
As the largest arts festival, the Fringe attracts performers and audiences from every corner of the world. I look forward to welcoming them to Edinburgh and kicking off what is set to be the biggest and most exciting Fringe to date.”
