This weekend we’re popping up in a big yellow ice cream van outside the Usher Hall

In collaboration with local legends S Luca, there will be flavours for you to try inspired by our genres: opera, music, theatre and dance. As well as the free ice cream, we’ll be handing out brochures and sharing our show recommendations.

With the van piping out music from this year’s Festival programme, you won't miss us.

Join us from 12noon to 4pm on Saturday 29 & Sunday 30 March outside Usher Hall. Find your Festival flavour.  

Tickets for the Edinburgh International Festival are on sale now.
