Every August the city of Edinburgh transforms into a festival lovers dream. From the theatre, music and opera performances of the International Festival, to the circus, cabaret, comedy and spoken word of the Fringe, there's something for everyone!
Use this thread as the place to share your tips and tricks throughout the month. Whether it's your favourite performer, the best food truck or the cheapest gin you can find at one of the many food trucks around the city, if you've got tips to share we want to hear them!
I'll be heading along to the Bloom opening event this weekend and will be back with more tips to share next week!

Subtle, hilarious and thought provoking + last time there was a gin truck parked right next to the shows entrance.
Foodwise my favourite find so far is the dumpling truck in the Assembly gardens. x5 dumplings for £3!

1. Wereldband: Slapstick from The Netherlands. So much fun and some very talented musicians and performers. If it looks like the kind of show you would like, then you'll love it!
2. Bratwurst sausage stall at the corner of George Square and Charles Street. My lavishly-furnished sausage was getting some admiring looks from hungry festival-goers. Someone shouted at me: "I want that, where did you get that sausage?"
3. A cafe stall called Covfefe...
I've seen Ursula Carlson as well and she is worth seeing too.
Both commedians plug each other so if you like one you will probably like the other.
