Edinburgh Festivals

Edinburgh Festival accommodation is in high demand for both home and international visitors who flock to Edinburgh’s fantastic variety of festivals and events during the year.

These range throughout the year from the Edinburgh International Science Festival in April, through to the summer Children's, Jazz & Blues, International, Film and Book Festivals, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the mesmerising Military Tattoo.

Then at the turn of the year from late November there is Edinburgh’s Christmas and from 29 December, the world famous Edinburgh Hogmanay - a four day extravaganza of events and the biggest four day party in the world.

The principle annual festivals can be found on this collective web site > www.edinburgh-festivals.com

Don’t leave it too late to book your Festival accommodation as rooms can be at a premium and on some days hard to find. But if you are looking for a late hotel booking do check with us here at The Braid Hills hotel on 0131 447 8888 - we may just have 'room at the inn', even in August and on 31st December, and our online availability will facilitate with late bookings and enquiries.
