Since 1947, the Edinburgh International Festival has existed to promote the exchange of ideas and deepen understanding between cultures through an unparalleled global celebration of exceptional performing arts.

Our vision is simple: to provide the deepest experience of the highest quality art for the broadest possible audience.
