Scunnered by the corporate commercialism of the Festival? Sick of being bled dry by the bloated beast that the Fringe has become? There is an antidote …
‘The Edinburgh Peoples Festival are determined to ensure that the world’s greatest arts festival is open to all citizens of the city. Our festival promises that, unlike the others, our program will remain within the financial reach of everyone, our shows will take place throughout the city (not just in EH1) and throughout the year and we will act primarily, although not exclusively, as a showcase for local talent.
We are committed to presenting the widest possible variety of high quality artistic productions and we aim to stimulate and challenge as well as entertain.’
Tickets are still available for tonight’s walking tour, a chance to dicover Edinburgh’s radical past, at 6.30pm and tomorrow’s showcase ‘The Stars Come Out to Gorgie’ – back at the BMC Club for a ninth year at 7.30pm.
