2026 Festival NEWS & Highlights
the vampire run
<<<NEW SHOW ADDED!>>>
Thursday 23rd July, 9.00pm
A dark and stormy night. A vampire’s castle outlined by lightning. An hour to find and kill the dreaded fiend... And one idiot trying to manage the escalating chaos.
Join a fast-paced, hilariously deadly choose-your-own adventure. Three players at a time must decide how to approach a variety of obstacles to reach the vampire’s chamber, BUT one of the players is evil, and the audience must decide who before it’s too late.
black umfolosi
Friday 24th July, 2.00pm
The world famous acappella and dance group make a long-awaited return to the UK!
Black Umfolosi performances are inspired by the traditional song and dance of their native southern Africa, with a beauty and enthusiasm that is unrivalled.
Their performances are energy driven and completely engaging, mixing a great gentleness of spirit and song with an exuberance in dance. Their trademark harmonies mixed with intricate rhythms, clicking and clapping are highlighted during their brilliantly choreographed shows with a full range of movements from subtle to vibrant stomping and leaping!
max fulham: memory foam
Saturday 25th July, 9.00pm
After last year's sold-out Edinburgh debut, Max is back and sorting through some boxes, but what will he find? Most likely a mixture of puppet characters, sketches and stand-up for you to rummage through. There’ll be family history, charity shopping, financial advice and more!
“I couldn’t physically breathe from laughing so much” ★★★★★THREE WEEKS
