Bristo Square illuminated for festival nightlife.
The University is again at the heart of the world-famous Edinburgh Festivals. With 12 different festivals to choose from, and as many as 2,500 different events on offer, the city is host to the biggest arts festival in the world. The University and many of its staff and students traditionally play a key role in many of the events and this year is no different. Here we present some of the highlights.

The extensive Fringe programme includes performances in Assembly Theatre, George Square Gardens, David Hume Tower, George Square Theatre and New College.
