2023

11—27 August

Our 19th edition was one of the largest yet, with 55 ambitious projects, talks, performances, parties and one-off events across more than 35 partners and venues.

This edition, the first under the direction of Kim McAleese, saw the local and the global come together as the festival moved to a new format, taking place on new dates aligning closely with the other August Edinburgh Festivals. Focused around three weekends, special events punctuated the run of the festival, including readings, screenings, parties and live performances alongside the wider offering of exhibitions and commissions.
