Edinburgh International Book Festival

Literary talents showcased (late-Aug)

Edinburgh-Book-Festival

Held in a village of marquees in gardens at the back of the Edinburgh Futures Institute and close to The Meadows this two-week annual Book Festival attracts best-selling and critically acclaimed authors and poets for readings, talks, debates and signings.

The range of topics involved is broad, from fiction to memoirs to cook books.

Children's books are a real strong point and a good portion of the program dedicated to kids.
