About this Event

If you're here for the Fringe, you're welcome - whether you're visiting, performing, reviewing, working, or just generally enjoying the Festival. We'll be a mix of visitors to Edinburgh and residents of the city.

The Fringe is one of the busiest times of the year in Edinburgh, with many different groups of people in the city. But all too often these groups don't mix; this free and open picnic is intended to address that.

We'll be situated in the vicinity of the Circus Hub on the Meadows. Look for someone wearing a ghost costume - that'll be us! We'll be present from 13:00 until about 17:00, at which point we'll retire for a drink at Summerhall, just around the corner.

We'll have some food, drinks and outdoor games. Feel free to bring along anything you'd like to eat or drink, and anything you're willing to share.

We'll see you there!
