Edinburgh snow: Watch as epic Edinburgh snowball fight involving dozens of locals breaks out

The large-scale fight took place at The Meadows on Saturday after Storm Bert brought freezing temperatures and heavy snow to the Capital, with the weather bringing the Capital’s buses to a standstill

A video taken by Riz Akhtar captured the fun, which involved around 100 people.

Speaking about scenes he witnessed, Riz told the Evening News: “It started around 2pm, I would say. Around 100 folk were involved. A lot of random folk joined in.

“There was a similar snowball fight 5 years ago which attracted huge crowds.”
