[title]The Edinburgh Festival Fringe is back for summer 2024. For three weeks (August 2 – August 26), the Scottish capital is home to comedy giants, serious thespians and hilarious first-timers, all putting on shows left, right and centre. It’s a huge, colourful celebration of all sorts of performing arts, and it’s a hell of a lot of fun.
But with so much choice on offer, it’s difficult to know where on earth to start. Here’s our pick of the best theatre shows accounced so far. The programme is famously enormous (over 3,500 shows), so we’ll keep adding to the list in the run up to the festival and will update it based upon reviews when the festival actually starts.
While most of our recommednations are from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2024, the Edinburgh International Festival (EIF) is also running alongside, and we’ve included some picks from that.
