In 2024, EAF (Edinburgh Art Festival) marks its 20th Birthday as the UK’s largest annual visual arts festival. EAF24 invites you to join us to pause and reflect on the conditions under which we live, work, gather and resist.

Bringing together museums and galleries from across Edinburgh with a programme of specially commissioned work, the EAF24 programme traces lines through personal histories, the natural world, post-colonial landscapes, and the global political stage. EAF24 connects to our context and the city — to the people and movements who inspire change, who resist inequity, isolation, destruction, and despair (in large ways and in quiet ways).

Come and join us for an August packed with exhibitions, performances, discussions, and events. And if nothing else: come celebrate our 20th Birthday party together!
