William Burdett-Coutts, Director of Assembly Festival said: “Heading into my 40th Fringe I am delighted and excited by our festival programme.
“To ensure that Edinburgh maintains its reputation as a world-class destination and that audiences in their thousands continue to flock to the Fringe in August, we need to constantly think about reinvention.
“This means investing in huge amounts of infrastructure, building new relationships and developing new ideas to ensure that every year we have a fantastic August”.
The ‘Sip and Slide bar’ will be open from August 2 until August 25.
