Edinburgh Fringe 2025 programme soon to be released

Every August, for three weeks, Edinburgh transforms itself into “an explosion of creative energy”.

Performances line the streets, places you wouldn’t expect become theatres and each visitor creates their own unique festival through the shows they decide to experience.

The release of this year’s full programme is set to be Tuesday, 3 June. The release is much anticipated and will compile every show that will be performed between 1-25 August. Last year, over 3,000 shows were performed.

Many of the performances strive to confront worldwide issues and topical debates. For example, everything from the environment, politics, AI (artificial intelligence) and voicing underprivileged backgrounds has been covered in recent years.

At its heart though, Edinburgh Fringe is a comedy festival – so whether you want to cry, laugh, think deeply or do all at once, this festival will have something for you.

Once the programme is released, a surge of bookings is usually made in the excitement. This can be booking the shows people simply can’t miss out on, accommodation, transport or even restaurants.

With all the decisions you need to make when planning a trip such as this, it can feel overwhelming finding the “right” places to stay and eat – especially when, after such long and exciting days, you just want to relax.
