EAF (Edinburgh Art Festival) is the UK’s largest annual festival of visual art. Set to return from 14—30 August, the festival presents alternative perspectives across the breadth of the city. Bringing together galleries and community spaces from across Edinburgh with a programme of genre-pushing commissions, the festival creates a unique moment in time for artist-driven work like no other. 

No two events are the same: experience a packed programme of vibrant exhibitions, experimental performance, installations, artist talks, and more.
