Fringe Guide

Incognito Improv co-founder Tom Munro is a veteran of 20+ Edinburgh Fringe Festivals. He has written a guide to the essentials of the festival, aimed at newcomers who are looking to get the most out of their experience, and save time and money.

Beginners Guide to the Edinburgh Fringe

The Fringe is the most fantastic place on Earth, but it is huge and can be confusing for first timers.

Over the years, Tom has introduced lots of friends to the festival, and helped them navigate the city, pick good shows, and find the fun!

To spread the joy further, Tom wrote this guide – boiling down 20+ years of knowledge into a 20 page, pocket-sized booklet, which tells you everything you need to know to get going at the Fringe.

Contents include:

  • An introduction to the Fringe
  • How to pick a good show
  • Fringe Dos and Don’ts
  • Actually useful maps!
  • A guide to the main venues
  • Edinburgh essentials: where to eat, drink and poop
  • What else to do beyond the Fringe
  • Tips and tricks
