About

“One of the world’s great arts venues” (Mark Cousins, The Guardian), Summerhall is situated in the heart of Edinburgh, and offers diverse programmes of theatre, live music, film, visual arts and performance. Alongside its unique year-round events programme, Summerhall is also one of Edinburgh’s premier Edinburgh Festival Fringe venues, winning multiple Fringe First and Total Theatre awards and bringing leading theatre-makers to the festival. The venue is home to a varied community of creative artists and businesses (including two cafe-bars), and is a major cultural destination where audiences meet and mix, and where artists and performers are inspired to make and present their best work.
