Fringe 2025
Welcome to the Scottish Storytelling Centre Fringe programme 2025, with 32 different events to explore this August!
Join us on a journey through traditional and contemporary storytelling, music, theatre, spoken word and shows for families.
Stories need an audience – people to hear them, imagine them and pass them on – so we invite you to join this carrying stream and become part of the story this Fringe. Whether seeing a show, browsing our bookshop or refreshing yourself at the Haggis Box Café, the Scottish Storytelling Centre is the perfect place for locals, families and visitors to meet. Our programme for August is specially curated to reflect the energy and variety of our year-round offer, so you are also very welcome any time of the year.
There’s food in the eating place, drink in the drinking place, and stories in the listening place – it’s all there waiting to be enjoyed.
We look forward to welcoming you this August!
