Edinburgh Festivals Tips
To help you make the most of visiting the festivals, we've prepared some handy tips:
Charge your phone (and bring a portable charger if you have one) so that you can check out the online programmes.
Wear comfy shoes—a day at the festivals can mean lots of walking.
Check the weather forecast—Edinburgh often experiences four seasons in one day! Make sure to pack a light rain jacket in case of a sudden downpour.
Start your day early so you can secure the best festival tickets and see the most popular visitor attractions before they get too busy.
Head to the Edinburgh VisitScotland iCentre on the Royal Mile and pick up a map to get your bearings.
