Edinburgh is the world's leading festival city, and in 2025 the Edinburgh International Improv Festival returns to the capital city.

The festival is dedicated to bringing the best improvisational theatre to Edinburgh.

Our focus is the community, within Scotland, the UK and internationally; we
want to build bridges and open a dialogue that allows the art form to grow.
