Navigating the programme Show icons – see below. Subgenres – these let you know a little more about what to expect from each show.
Calendar – dates in grey have no performances. Dates in red are eligible for the 2for1 offer (07 and 08 August). Purchase two (or multiples of two) full-price tickets and the 2for1 discount will be automatically applied to your basket. Date, time, duration and price lines – the Fringe uses a 24-hour clock. Fringe days run from 05:00 in the morning to 04:59. Shows starting after midnight and before 5am will be listed for the day before. This means that if you are going out on Friday night and are attending a show at 1am, you should book for Friday, not Saturday. Free shows can be ticketed or non-ticketed. Ensure you book a ticket for free ticketed shows.
Venue information B – box office phone number; V – venue number; G – map grid reference. The name of the space within the venue is noted in the brackets after the venue address. Space accessibility information – the circular icons after the space name explain performance or spacespecific access information. For more details, please contact accessbookings@edfringe.com.

K The black icons with 12+, 14+, 16+ and 18+ advise the age suitability for a show. These can be guidance or restrictions, please check at time of ticket purchase.
Shows marked 18+ may be in venues that do not allow under-18s at all or at some points in the day due to licensing laws, despite the age ratings of the shows they host. Where possible, this information is included in the show and venue listings, but please check with the venue before you buy tickets to ensure everyone in your party can attend. Shows in the ‘Children’s shows’ section also display additional age guidance.
