Spaces
Information on this page applies to our in-person programme in Edinburgh.
Please note that the plans, pictures, dimensions and other details available here are indicative only, and final provision may be different. Our spaces are created from scratch each year, and vary from year to year. Pictures and plans are typically those from the previous Fringe, and may not reflect changes intended for the current year. Plans for spaces which are new for this year may not appear until plans are finalised, or for new spaces, plans and photos shown may be those of similar previous spaces. Equipment listed below and on the plans is as a general indication of possible provision only. Items listed as 'by arrangement' will generally incur an extra cost for provision. All dimensions are approximate, and all critical details should be verified in situ. All information provided here is for general guidance only and is subject to change at any time.
We are happy to work with you to try to facilitate what you need for performance space design and equipment. If you have requests or questions about our spaces, plans or technical provision, please contact the production department at production@cvenues.com.

C offsiteShows in our programme have performed in castles and other historic places, attics and cellars, a hairdressing salon, a bus, a toilet, churchyards, car parks, gardens, and the closes and courtyards of the Old Town. We welcome applications from street theatre, site-specific, site-responsive, immersive and installation performance pieces. If you have a specific performance space in mind, we can help you get it set up and licensed for public performance. If you are looking for in-situ performance spaces, immersive performance spaces, installation spaces, or other unconventional spaces, we are able to help. |
