Edinburgh International Festival goes outdoors for 2021
The Edinburgh International Festival welcomes audiences back to live performances with temporary outdoor pavilions throughout the city. According to the management of the Festival taking place from 7 to 29 August, in 2021 temporary outdoor pavilions in iconic, easily accessible spaces throughout the city to safely reunite the artists and audiences to rediscover the magic of live performance will be constructed.
Temporary outdoor pavilions, found at three locations including Edinburgh Park and the University of Edinburgh’s Old College Quad, will feature covered concert stages and socially distanced seating to create a beautiful setting for audiences to safely enjoy live music, opera and theatre once more.
Full details of the 2021 program, which spans opera, orchestral and chamber music, theatre, and contemporary music, will be announced on Wednesday 2 June. Priority booking for International Festival members opens on Tuesday 1 June before general booking opens on Friday 11 June. To ensure that everyone can enjoy the music, wherever they are in the world, the management of the festival will release a selection of high-quality streamed performances, free of charge, during each week of the Festival.
