List of Edinburgh Festival Fringe venues

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of venues used at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe,[1][2] the world's largest arts festival, which takes place in Edinburgh, Scotland each August. Many venues are known by different names during the rest of the year. For the purposes of this list they are given their "Fringe" name. Venues in italics were not in use during the last edition of the Fringe, but were used in previous years.
