The 35th Edinburgh International Children’s Festival gets underway tomorrow with a packed programme of circus, dance, storytelling and theatre for young people and their families.
-
Opening this year’s events is the Festival's Family Day—a full day of popular, free, pop-up performances and artist interventions at the National Museum of Scotland.
Running until June 1, the week-long programme explores timely topics such as celebrating difference, our fear of missing out and the search for identity, weaving in humour and excitement to connect with children regardless of their circumstances, access needs or location.
